A novel fast gas chromatography method for higher time resolution measurements of speciated monoterpenes in air [PDF]

, 2014
Biogenic emissions supply the largest fraction of non-methane volatile organic compounds (VOC) from the biosphere to the atmospheric boundary layer, and typically comprise a complex mixture of reactive terpenes. Due to this chemical complexity, achieving

Illicit Drug‐Derived Volatile Organic Compounds as Markers for Application in Noncontact Detection Technology

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
This review highlights the characteristic odor markers of illicit drugs, emphasizing volatile markers from both natural and synthetic sources, and explores the shift from canine‐based detection to emerging noncontact sensing technologies. Illicit drug use remains a global concern, requiring effective detection methods to counter evolving concealment ...

Crystal structures and binding dynamics of Odorant-Binding Protein 3 from two aphid species Megoura viciae and Nasonovia ribisnigri [PDF]

, 2016
Aphids use chemical cues to locate hosts and find mates. The vetch aphid Megoura viciae feeds exclusively on the Fabaceae, whereas the currant-lettuce aphid Nasonovia ribisnigri alternates hosts between the Grossulariaceae and Asteraceae.

Olefin Polymerizations Oriented by Rational Designs of Group‐13 Compounds

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
In coordination olefin polymerization chemistry, boron and aluminum compounds play important roles in both catalyst components and monomers. This personal account introduces our recent progress on the development of catalyst systems featured by the design of group‐13 counteranions, as well as the application of boronic acid‐crosslinked polyolefins to ...

Identification of Attractants from Three Host Plants and How to Improve Attractiveness of Plant Volatiles for Monochamus saltuarius

Plants
As a new vector insect of pine wood nematodes in China, the Monochamus saltuarius (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) vectors pine wilt nematodes into healthy pine trees through feeding and oviposition, resulting in huge economic losses to forestry.

Repellent, irritant and toxic effects of essential oil constituents on Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) [PDF]

, 2013
Whiteflies, Bemisia tabaci, are a widespread pest in agriculture, causing crop loss up to 100% by direct and indirect damage. Controlling this pest has proven difficult due to the fact that they stay underside the leaves and their ability to become ...

The formation, properties and impact of secondary organic aerosol: current and emerging issues [PDF]

, 2009
Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) accounts for a significant fraction of ambient tropospheric aerosol and a detailed knowledge of the formation, properties and transformation of SOA is therefore required to evaluate its impact on atmospheric processes ...

Identification and Quantification of Volatile Organic Compounds and Bioaerosols in the Conservation Processes of Guanche Mummies

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Guanche mummies, ancient inhabitants of the Canary Islands, represent a significant part of the historical heritage preserved at the Museum of Nature and Archaeology (MUNA) in Tenerife, Spain. These mummies, subjected to artificial conservation practices, are of great interest to conservators seeking to understand their mummification ...

A facile and green route to terpene derived acrylate and methacrylate monomers and simple free radical polymerisation to yield new renewable polymers and coatings [PDF]

, 2016
We present new acrylic monomers derived directly from abundant naturally available terpenes via a facile, green and catalytic approach. These monomers can be polymerised to create new polymers with a wide range of mechanical properties that positions ...

Looking for Greener Pastures: In Vitro Screening of Phytogenics for the Control of Sparicotyle chrysophrii in Gilthead Sea Bream

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The gill parasite Sparicotyle chrysophrii poses a significant threat to gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) aquaculture in the Mediterranean, causing considerable mortality and economic losses. As traditional chemotherapeutic treatments, like formalin, face growing regulatory restrictions, there is an urgent need for alternative control ...
