Swimming Behavior of Daphnia magna Is Altered by Pesticides of Concern, as Components of Agricultural Surface Water and in Acute Exposures

Biology, 2023
Pesticides with novel modes of action including neonicotinoids and anthranilic diamides are increasingly detected in global surface waters. Little is known about how these pesticides of concern interact in mixtures at environmentally relevant ...

Performance of first flush devices as sanitary barrier for cisterns protection

Revista Águas Subterrâneas, 2017
The use of cisterns for rainwater storage is a common practice in several places that have long periods of water scarcity. To avoid contamination of the stored water in cisterns, one strategy is the use of first flush device.

Does an Additional Bile Duct Flush With Low-viscosity Preservation Solution Reduce Bile Duct Injury? A Single-blinded Randomized Clinical Trial

Transplantation Direct, 2023
Introduction. Biliary complications are a common cause of morbidity after liver transplantation and associated with bile duct injury. To reduce injury, a bile duct flush is performed with high-viscosity preservation solution.

Clinical Supervision: Beyond the First Flush [PDF]

Journal of Perioperative Practice, 2017
Nearly two decades ago, Smith (1999) recognised that little had been published on the implementation and usefulness of clinical supervision in the operating theatre. Accordingly, she conducted a small action research project and reported its findings.

First flush analysis of urban stormwater runoff from an urban catchment in Johor, Malaysia

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
An increase of pollutants that are present in the initial stage of stormwater runoff hydrograph compared to a later stage of runoff is defined as a first flush phenomenon. This study aims to investigate the occurrence of first flush from samples of urban

Temporal and spatial patterns of Cl- and Na+ concentrations and Cl/Na ratios in salted urban watersheds

Elementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2015
The study of sodium and chloride in the environment has a long history with a particular focus on road salting in urban areas. In many studies, spatial scales are limited (e.g., city) and temporal measurements are coarse (e.g., monthly), with the result ...

Solid-state growth of Si to produce planar surfaces [PDF]

, 1976
Paralleling the sophisticated control of Si and GaAs growth from fluid media, we demonstrate control of Si growth using a solid growth medium. Faceted dissolution pits were first produced in a Si substrate using standard photolithographic techniques and ...

Pattern-based assessment of the influence of rainfall characteristics on urban stormwater quality

Water Science and Technology, 2023
Urbanisation increases pollutant generation within catchments and their transport to receiving waters. Changes to rainfall patterns, particularly in the age of climate change, make pollution mitigation a challenging task.

Inflammation and JNK's Role in Niacin-GPR109A Diminished Flushed Effect in Microglial and Neuronal Cells With Relevance to Schizophrenia

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2021
Schizophrenia is a neuropsychiatric illness with no single definitive aetiology, making its treatment difficult. Antipsychotics are not fully effective because they treat psychosis rather than the cognitive or negative symptoms.
