Effects of Resident Education and Self-Implementation of Integrated Pest Management Strategy for Eliminating Bed Bug Infestation in Ahvaz City, Southwestern Iran

Journal of Arthropod-Borne Diseases, 2019
Background: Bed bugs as blood-sucking insects have become a public health problem in urban communities through­out the world. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of resident education and self-implementation of Integrated Pest ...

Erwin Schrödinger und die Versuchungen der (Wissenschafts‐)Biografik: Vorurteilsgefüge und Mechanismen der Skandalisierung

Berichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, EarlyView.
Since late 2021, serious allegations have been made against physicist Erwin Schrödinger, ranging from pedophilia to serial sexual abuse. These accusations have significantly tarnished the Nobel Prize winner's public reputation. The ongoing debate has repeatedly raised the question of whether, and to what extent, these grave allegations are justified ...

Development of molecular diagnostic protocols for simultaneous identification of common bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) and tropical bed bugs (Cimex hemipterus)

Parasites & Vectors
Background The resurgence of two bed bug species, the common bed bug (Cimex lectularius Linnaeus, 1758) and tropical bed bug (Cimex hemipterus Fabricius, 1803), in the same geographical regions has been frequently reported recently.

Evidence for adaptive explanations of semelparity in animals

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Semelparity, the reproductive strategy of reproducing once, is widespread but uncommon in animals. Classes of models to explain the evolution of semelparity are based either on age structure and mortality schedules – demographic models in which high post‐reproductive mortality risk favours high reproductive effort and semelparity results from ...

Carbon monoxide adsorption on NaY zeolite and impregnated with 5% niobium: Characteristics and fixed‐bed study

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Schematic of the CO adsorption process in a fixed‐bed column containing pure NaY zeolite and Nb‐modified NaY (NaY–5%Nb). On the left, breakthrough curves and temperature profiles highlight the dynamic performance and thermal effects during CO adsorption.

Evaluation of Blood Regimen on the Survival of Cimex lectularius L. Using Life Table Parameters

Insects, 2013
Knowledge of bed bug development under varying conditions can lead to more sophisticated management techniques. Development rate, age and stage-specific life tables were compared for a laboratory strain (HS) and field strain (ECL-05) of bed bug Cimex ...

Experimental methods in chemical engineering: Magnetometry

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Magnetometry is a non‐invasive technique to characterize the behaviour of magnetic materials of which the most common contain Fe, Co, and Ni. Vibrating sample magnetometers (VSMs) vibrate samples at a fixed frequency in a static, homogeneous magnetic field to induce a voltage in pick up coils according to Faraday's law of induction.

Interactions among Carbon Dioxide, Heat, and Chemical Lures in Attracting the Bed Bug, Cimex lectularius L. (Hemiptera: Cimicidae)

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2012
Commercial bed bug (Cimex lectularius L.) monitors incorporating carbon dioxide (CO2), heat, and chemical lures are being used for detecting bed bugs; however, there are few reported studies on the effectiveness of chemical lures in bed bug monitors and ...

Daily Body (Dis‐)Satisfaction and Dietary Restriction in Women Across the Eating Disorder Spectrum

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Body dissatisfaction is a key risk factor in eating disorder development: It is theorized to promote dietary restriction, thereby contributing to symptom onset. Evidence for this pathway primarily comes from cross‐sectional or multi‐wave questionnaire studies in bulimia nervosa (BN) and anorexia nervosa (AN).
