A systematic review on research trends and commercialised entomopathogenic nematodes: A global perspective

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Out of 136 identified EPNs, only 18 (8 Steinernema and 6 Heterorhabditis) are commercialised globally, highlighting a major gap between discovery and application. High production costs and inconsistent field efficacy are the leading obstacles to the widespread commercialisation of EPN‐based biocontrol products.

Exposures in Indoor Air Affecting Health

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Indoor air quality (IAQ) is influenced by a wide range of chemical, biological and physical agents that can negatively impact physical, immunological and mental health. Adverse health effects depend on the type and concentration of pollutants, duration of exposure, and individual susceptibility.

Contact Allergy to Ingredients of Hair Cosmetics Associated with Occupational and Non‐Occupational Exposure—Trends from 1995 to 2020 in Central Europe, with or without Regulation

open access: yesContact Dermatitis, EarlyView.
Among 2678 female hairdressers and 6244 female consumers with contact dermatitis suspected to be related to use of hair cosmetics, including dyes, patch tested in the IVDK between 1995 and 2020, diverging contact allergy trends were observed. In the case of toluene‐2,5‐diamine (PTD) shown in the figure, sensitization was at a stable, high level in ...
