Electrochemical Behavior of Imidacloprid

Journal of Electrochemistry, 2012
The electrochemical behavior of imidacloprid（IDP）on glassy carbon electrode has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry. The result shows that the electrochemical reduction of IDP is irreversible and controlled by diffusion. At 25 ℃, the numbers of the electrons transferred of IDP in the electrochemical reaction are four.

Fluidized-bed Fenton treatment of imidacloprid: Optimization and degradation pathway

Sustainable Environment Research, 2018
Environmental impact of pesticides is one of the great concerns being addressed by water-food nexus research. Imidacloprid is one of the most used insecticides as an alternative for carcinogenic organochloride insecticides.

Tachinidae (Diptera) as Floral Visitors and Pollinators in Natural and Managed Systems

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We review the roles of bristle flies (Tachinidae) as pollinators in natural and managed systems. We find that most tachinid genera visit flowers and that floral‐adapted mouthparts have evolved repeatedly many times in the family. We review patterns of floral specificity and assess the efficacy of tachinids as pollinators with case studies.

Movement and persistence of [14C]imidacloprid in sugar-beet plants following application to pelleted sugar-beet seed

, 1998
[C-14]Imidacloprid was applied to pelleted seeds of sugar beet which were then grown in pots of field soil. Leaves, roots and soil were analysed at intervals up to 97 days after planting and the distributions of parent compound and of several metabolites

Imidacloprid oxidation by photo-Fenton reaction

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2008
This paper presents experimental results on the imidacloprid removal from wastewater using homogeneous photo-Fenton reactions illuminated with black light lamps. Multivariate experimental design was used to identify the effect of initial Fe(II) and H(2)O(2) concentrations on process performance.

Imidacloprid Alters Activity and Responses to a Visual Predator Stimulus in Aussie Bronze Jumping Spiders (Helpis minitabunda, Araneae, Salticidae)

Ethology, EarlyView.
A field‐recommended concentration of a commercial imidacloprid formulation reduced open arena activity and slowed climbing in the jumping spider Helpis minitabunda. Exposed spiders still detected a looming predator stimulus, but their responses were reduced.

Earthworms (Eisenia foetida, Savigny) mucus as complexing ligand for imidacloprid [PDF]

, 2010
Earthworms can excrete copious amounts of mucus that may affect the fraction, transport fate, and bioavailability of contaminants in soil. However, interaction of mucus with organic contaminants is still not well-known. In the present study, complexation

Evolution of imidacloprid resistance in Myzus persicae in Greece and susceptibility data for spirotetramat

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Myzus persicae s.l. is a major crop pest globally and has evolved resistance to a range of insecticide classes making it increasingly difficult to control in some areas.

Juvenile hormone III improves honeybee resistance to imidacloprid by protecting the midgut

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Imidacloprid is one of the most commonly used insecticides and seriously threatens the survival of honeybees. Juvenile hormone III (JHIII), an important hormone in honeybees, plays a central role in the life cycle of honeybees; however, the mechanism by ...

A Systematic Map to Identify Knowledge Gaps on a Vector of Citrus Greening Diseases: The African Citrus Triozid, Trioza erytreae (Del Guercio, 1918) (Hemiptera: Triozidae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Globally, citrus production areas are threatened by greening diseases, also known as Huánglóngbíng (HLB), associated with phloem‐limited gram‐negative species of the genus Candidatus Liberibacter. Those pathogens are transmitted by either the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri Kuwayama 1908 (Hemiptera: Psyllidae), or the African citrus ...
