Rapid toxicity assessment of six antifouling booster biocides using a microplate-based chlorophyll fluorescence in Undaria pinnatifida gametophytes [PDF]
, 2020 Biocides of antifouling agents can cause problems in marine ecosystems by damaging to non-target algal species. Aquatic bioassays are important means of assessing the quality of water containing mixtures of contaminants and of providing a safety standard

Optimization of the bi-oleothermal treatment process for wood preservation and fireproofing [PDF]
, 2011 The bi-oleothermal© process (combination of oil and heat treatment) is a well mastered alternative method for wood protection. However, the fire behavior and resistance to decay of bi-oleothermally treated wood are not good enough to ensure performance ...

Evaluation of epidemiological cut-off values indicates that biocide resistant subpopulations are uncommon in natural isolates of clinically-relevant microorganisms. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 To date there are no clear criteria to determine whether a microbe is susceptible to biocides or not. As a starting point for distinguishing between wild-type and resistant organisms, we set out to determine the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and

Validation of a multi-residue method to determine deltamethrin and alpha-cypermethrin in mosquito nets by gas chromatography with electron capture detection (GC-µECD) [PDF]
, 2013 Background: Nowadays long-lasting insecticidal mosquito nets (LNs) are frequently used around the world to protect people against malaria vectors. As they contain insecticide, laboratory control is needed to check whether the content of the active ...

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT To address the persistent exceedance of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) concentrations and the limited effectiveness of existing treatments in the Sickle Bay oil production area, this study deeply analyzes the mechanism of H2S generation in the Sickle Bay oil production area and proposes targeted prevention and control strategies. The results show that
