title: [Studies on the effect-increasing components for molluscacides in nut of Areca catech L].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the effect-increasing action of Areca catech for molluscacide.
  
  
  METHODS
  Experiments were conducted on the effect-increasing components isolated from the dry nut of A. catech.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Arecoline has been proved the most effect-increasing component.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  When used with SPA arecoline could reduce markedly the doses of the two agents.
