The efficacy of juvenile hormone III (JH III) and two JH-mimicking compounds was compared in laboratory experiments with Reticulitermes lucifugus (Rossi), R. santonensis Feytaud and R. virginicus (Banks). Induction of presoldier, soldier and/or soldier-worker intercaste differentiation was taken as positive response to the treatment. The novel juvenogen, a fatty acid ester of a juvenoid alcohol, induced greatest soldier differentiation in all species tested, followed by hydroprene. JH III was less effective. Representatives of three Reticulitermes species showed similar trends in soldier induction rates. Differences in mortality in treatments of termites of the same species from different colonies with the same compound were observed and evidently were caused by differences in the conditions of respective colonies.
在实验室实验中，比较了保幼激素III（JH III）和两种保幼激素类似物对黑胸散白蚁（Reticulitermes lucifugus (Rossi)）、桑氏散白蚁（R. santonensis Feytaud）和弗吉尼亚散白蚁（R. virginicus (Banks)）的效果。将诱导前兵蚁、兵蚁和/或兵蚁 - 工蚁中间型分化作为对处理的阳性反应。新型保幼激素，一种保幼激素醇的脂肪酸酯，在所有测试物种中诱导出的兵蚁分化最多，其次是烯虫酯。JH III的效果较差。三种散白蚁物种的代表在兵蚁诱导率上呈现出相似的趋势。观察到用相同化合物处理来自不同蚁群的同一物种白蚁时，死亡率存在差异，这显然是由各个蚁群的条件差异所导致的。
