					mg AI/liter (95% CI)	1 ´ MFR	0.1 ´ MFR
Codling moth adults (residual exposure)
Acetamiprid 70WP	2002	175	44	1.5 (0.2)	4.0 (2.2-6.6)	94.1	52.4
Thiacloprid 480SC	2002	175	57	1.5 (0.2)	19.8 (10.2-37.1)	80.3	25.9
Clothianidin 50WP	2004	300	57	2.8 (0.6)	10.2 (6.3-13.4)	98.0	22.5
Azinphosmethyl 50WP	2002	100	1121	1.9 (0.3)	7.2 (3.8-13.1)	100.0	93.4

^a A 't' ratio test on the slope parameter of each probit line was conducted and in each case was greater then 1.96 indicating a linear fit for the data.
