Post‐blossom applications of endrin emulsion to fruiting blackcurrant bushes at rates equivalent to 0.0375 and 0.05% endrin left harvest residues, estimated by two chemical methods and by microbioassay, exceeding 1 p.p.m. Some evidence has been obtained that these residues do not pass into expressed juice.
