English. In spite of a lack of acute toxicity of single metal ions, in 96 hour laboratory tests there was along term toxicity against S. carpocapsae and H. bacteriophora nematodes. The 96 hourlaboratory tests were carried out in order to prove possible synergistic and antagonisticinteractions between pairs of metal ions. Thus, the pairs of ions were arranged from each of Al,Cd, Co(II), Cr(III), Cr(VI), Cu(II), Fe(III), Li, Mo(VI), Ni(II), Se(IV), V(V) and Zn on one sideand Mn(II) and Mg on the other. Mn(II) and Mg ions considerably reduced the nematodemortality and increased their infectivity against Galleria mellonella caterpillars.
