One test was conducted in the absence of light, while the other was subject to continuous light. The researchers calculated that Piperonyl butoxide (PBO) toxicity is not enhanced by simulated sunlight. Calculated LC50 values for dark exposures was 814.4ug/L, and when exposed to light was 888.6ug/L (not statistically different P=0.42). Water salinity was 20 ppt.
