The Importance of the Larval Parasitoid Actia interrupta (Diptera: Tachinidae) in Low Density Eastern Spruce Budworm Populations

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Actia interrupta is an important larval tachinid parasitoid during low‐density populations of the eastern spruce budworm. In the late 1980s during the outbreak collapse, Meteorus trachynotus was initially the most important species, but was replaced by A. interrupta. Host patch size and density had no impact on the parasitism rates by A.

Potential of organogel‐based colloidal hydrogels for new cosmetic formulations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Colloidal hydrogels are formed by combining anionic, cationic, or nonionic surfactants with two oils of cosmetic interest: sweet almond oil and phytosqualane. These systems are obtained through hot emulsification followed by cooling, which leads to the aggregation of gel‐like particles.
