Toxicity of Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis (ONR-60A/WHO 1897) parasporal crystals to three medically important mosquito larvae is described. The numbers of larvae killed are in relation to crystal dry weight. The crystals are lethally toxic to Aedes aegypti Linnaeus (mean 50% lethal concentration [LC50] = 1.9 x 10(-4) micrograms/ml), Culex pipiens var. quinquefasciatus Say (LC50 = 3.7 x 10(-4) micrograms/ml), and Anopheles albimanus Wiedemann (LC50 = 8.0 x 10(-3) micrograms/ml). Purfied crystals of B. thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki, which are toxic to lepidopteran insects, are ineffective against the mosquito larvae. Likewise, B. thuringiensis subsp. israelensis parasporal crystals are not efficacious for larvae of the lepidopteran, Manduca sexta.
苏云金芽孢杆菌以色列亚种（ONR - 60A/WHO 1897）伴孢晶体对三种医学上重要的蚊虫幼虫的毒性已被描述。死亡幼虫数量与晶体干重相关。这些晶体对埃及伊蚊（林奈）（平均半数致死浓度[LC50]=1.9×10⁻⁴微克/毫升）、致倦库蚊（赛伊）（LC50 = 3.7×10⁻⁴微克/毫升）和白纹伊蚊（维德曼）（LC50 = 8.0×10⁻³微克/毫升）具有致命毒性。对鳞翅目昆虫有毒的苏云金芽孢杆菌库尔斯塔克亚种的纯化晶体对蚊虫幼虫无效。同样，苏云金芽孢杆菌以色列亚种伴孢晶体对鳞翅目昆虫烟草天蛾的幼虫也没有效果。
