The threshold assessment values such as effective concentration fifty (EC50) for root growth, lowest effective concentration tested (LECT), and highest ineffective concentration tested (HICT) for induction of MNC in Allium MNC assay for the present aquatic industrial mercury were determined to be 0.14, 0.06 and 0.02 mg/l, respectively.

Four mercurial derivatives namely mercuric chloride (MC), methyl mercuric chloride (MMC), phenyl mercuric acetate (PMA) and a methoxy ethyl mercuric chloride based fungicide, Emisan-6, were tested to assess the sensitivity and versatility of the Allium MNC assay.
The lowest effective concentration tested (LECT) and highest ineffective concentration tested (HICT) for each of the mercurial derivatives for the induction of spindle malfunction and MNC were determined.

In one experiment the intact root meristems of E. crassipes were subjected to 1 h acute exposure to water contaminated with maleic hydrazide (MH), 56 ppm, or methyl mercuric chloride (MMCl), 0.1-0.5 ppm, followed by recovery in tap water for 4-48 h.
The highest ineffective concentration tested (HICT) and lowest effective concentration tested (LECT) for MMC determined in this experiment were 0.0005 ppm and 0.001 ppm, respectively.
