The combination of indoor residual spraying with insecticide-treated nets versus insecticide-treated nets alone for preventing malaria (Protocol) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (Intervention). The objectives are as follows:\ud To evaluate whether indoor residual spraying (IRS) in combination with long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLINs)/insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) causes an additional reduction to malaria transmission versus LLINs/ITNs alone.

Agronomic and nutritional performance of lentil–hull‐less barley mixtures under temperate Swiss conditions: protein content, protein yield stability, β‐glucan content and separation ability

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Intercropping of legumes with cereals enhances resilience, resource efficiency, and nutritional quality in food systems, yet few studies have integrated yield stability with grain quantity and post‐harvest processability. Lentils (Lens culinaris Medik.) and hull‐less barley (Hordeum vulgare L. var.

Unveiling chemical composition of peppermint oil and its bioactivities compared with (R)‐(+)‐limonene: antimicrobial, antibiofilm, and insecticidal perspectives

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Peppermint (Mentha piperita L.) essential oil (MPEO) is recognized for its broad‐spectrum antimicrobial properties and potential applications in food preservation. This study aimed to determine whether the bioactivity of MPEO is attributable to (R)‐(+)‐limonene or whether the complete essential oil provides higher efficacy due to ...

Aerial Seeding for Forest and Landscape Restoration: A Systematic Review of Technology, Challenges, and Future Directions

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Land degradation is a critical global challenge, threatening biodiversity, food security, and livelihoods. Ecological restoration has therefore become a priority, with aerial seeding emerging as a key method to address issues of scale, accessibility, and efficiency. By dispersing seeds from aircraft or drones, aerial seeding complements ground‐
