The application of fenamiphos either alone or in combination with soil fumigants is a common practice in greenhouses and potato-cultivation areas in Greece. However, repeated applications of fenamiphos in the same field for a number of years can lead to the development of enhanced biodegradation of the nematicide. Studies in previously treated greenhouse sites and potato field sites in Greece w...

Laparoscopic sterilization has low complication rates but is not available in parts of the developing world due to the lack of facilities, equipment and expertise. Less invasive...

The aim of this research project is to study the applicability of supercritical extraction with carbon dioxide to the decontamination of soils containing pesticides. In this work, after a brief but important introduction to the subject, the results of a preliminary study of the extraction of atrazine from sand with supercritical carbon dioxide are reported. These results, which were obtained wi...

Effective microorganisms (EM), a culture of coexisting beneficial microorganisms predominantly consisting of species of photosynthetic and lactic acid bacteria, yeast and actinomycetes, has been developed by Japanese Scientists. In the present study effect of soil sterilization on performance of a commercial EM biofertilizer (EM Bioab), in improving crop growth and yield in wheat (Triticum aest...
