✦ Synopsis

Eighty-four lupin samples were tested for toxicity using two currently available bioassays. One utilizes sheep and the other nursling rats. There was an association between the results obtained by the two bioassays but 65% of the variance of the nursling rat bioassay results was not associated with the sheep bioassay results in the linear regression. Reasons for this poor correlation are suggested and discussed.

Fifteen lupin stubble samples were tested for toxicity using a sheep bioassay and a chemical assay. A good association, in the functional form of a quadratic equation, existed between the results provided by the two assays. Only 16% of the variance of the chemical assay results was not associated wi
