The results of experiments at the DESOWAG Chemical Company, Rheinberg, Germany, demonstrated the inefficiency of copper, zinc, lead, cadmium, and mercury naphthenates, especially the two first-named, and of two naphthenic acids, as wood preservatives against Coniophora cerebella, Poria vapour aria, Lentinus squamosus, Lenzites abietina, Merulius lacrymans, and Chaetomium globosum, using the toximetric test-tube and wood-block methods of assay.
