This lesson introduces students to a basic toxicological analysis, LD50 (or ED50). The range of concentrations tested will require the use of a logarithmic scale in the resulting graph.

For 2022 Students, the spreadsheet that you will create should only include columns with "Simple Green Concentration" and "Brine Shrimp % Mortality" so, begin watching the video at 4:30....
