Abstract Background Powdery mildew is a common leaf disease of crops worldwide. A large quantity chemical fungicides used to control this in horticulture and agriculture, producing serious safety environmental problems. To suppress safe environment-friendly ways, the biocontrol self-isolated new strain Lysobacter enzymogenes (CQ18) was studied against flue-cured tobacco powdery mildews. Results...

In order to identify the types of pesticide residues and maximum residue limit (MRLs) values in strawberries, national estimated daily intake short-term were used assess risk different populations, respectively. Meanwhile, existing MRLs standard was evaluate consumer protection level, ranking matrix rank detected pesticides.The results showed that a total 14 pesticides all strawberries with det...

Conazoles are fungicides used to control fungal growth in environmental settings and to treat humans with fungal infections. Mouse hepatotumorigenic conazoles display many of the same hepatic toxicologic responses as the mouse liver carcinogen phenobarbital (PB): constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) activation, hypertrophy, Cyp2b induction, and increased cell proliferation. The goal of this s...

BACKGROUND Information on the potential developmental toxicity (DT) of the majority of chemicals is scarce, and test capacities for further animal-based testing are limited. Therefore, new approaches with higher throughput are required. A screening strategy based on the use of relevant human cell types has been proposed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and others. Because impaired ne...
