Microapplicator and micropipette for inoculation of the embryonated chicken egg.
Aflatoxin G2 was used to test the speed and accuracy of the microapplicator and the micropipette. The 50% lethal dose of both assay systems was approximately the same, and 4.0 mug of G2 had an 85% lethal effect in both systems. The 50% lethal dose of the microapplicator and the micropipette was lower than that of the syringe but, of these, only the micropipette can combine the accuracy of the microapplicator and the speed of the syringe.
