This study focused on the dissipation of propanil and 3,4 dichloroaniline (3,4 DCA) over time in the soil, field water, inlet water, and outlet water of paddy fields under three management systems: conventional water seeding (CON), conventional water seeding with supplied liquid manure (LMA), and dry seeding (DRY). Propanil dissipation in water was also investigated under laboratory conditions....

The manuscript describes a study on the blood cholinesterase (ChE) level in an exposed population at different interval of time after spraying with malathion suspension (SRES) use for kala-azar vector control in an endemic area of Bihar, India. The toxicity of a 5% malathion formulation in the form of a slow release emulsified suspension (SRES) was assessed by measuring serum ChE levels in spra...

The efficacies of using residual house spraying and insecticide-treated nets against malaria vectors are compared, using data from six recent comparisons in Africa, Asia and Melanesia. By all the entomological and malariological criteria recorded, pyrethroid-treated nets were at least as efficacious as house spraying with dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), malathion or a pyrethroid. However...

With the discovery of new exploit techniques, novel protection mechanisms are needed as well. Mitigations like DEP (Data Execution Prevention) or ASLR (Address Space Layout Randomization) created a significantly more difficult environment for exploitation. Attackers, however, have recently researched new exploitation methods which are capable of bypassing the operating system’s memory mitigatio...

photosynthesis (1). Total radioactivity fixed per leaf was unchanged by the two-hour treatment with gibberellic acid; typical results are shown in table I. Similar results were also obtained in one experiment with Chlorella pyrenoidosa. Examination of autoradiograms of the chromatograms of extracts from the oats, barley, and peas showed no significant differences in the distribution of C'4 amon...

Nanostructured ceramic coatings produced by plasma spray processes are being developed for a wide variety of applications that require resistance to wear, erosion, cracking and spallation [1]. In addition the process is being developed to make near net shaped ceramic performs by dissolution of the substrate after spraying. Attractive properties associated with a nanostructure (in general referr...

BACKGROUND Government-administered adulticiding is frequently conducted in response to dengue transmission worldwide. Anecdotal evidence suggests that spraying may create a "false sense of security" for residents. Our objective was to determine if there was an association between residents' reporting outdoor spatial insecticide spraying as way to prevent dengue transmission and both their repor...

In this study, the use of synthetic stones and peach kernels in denim stone washing process instead pumice was investigated. The performance each alternative identified with different methods, i.e. conventional, low liquor, spraying methods. effects were compared. Moreover, energy water consumption equivalent carbon dioxide emission method analyzed. results indicated that although led to best a...

gastrointestinal malignant tumors treated by spraying N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (Histoacryl) on the lesion with satisfactory results (●" Table 1). The first case was a 84-year-old man who presented with recurrent upper gastrointestinal bleeding since a few days. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) revealed a 5-cm gastric cancer at the lesser curvature with oozing. Epinephrine (1 :20000) was injected...
