Electromembrane Extraction for Multiclass Pesticide Assessment in Soil Matrices: Sustainable Analytical Insights

Analysis &Sensing, EarlyView.
The U‐shaped electromembrane extraction with liquid chromatography‐mass spectrometry enables rapid multiclass pesticide screening in soil. The 15 min, low‐solvent workflow achieves high recoveries and robust linearity, while AGREEprep and GAPI assessments highlight a greener profile compared to literature reports, which represents a smart strategy for ...

Neonicotinoid insecticides can serve as inadvertent insect contraceptives

Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2016
There is clear evidence for sublethal effects of neonicotinoid insecticides on non-target ecosystem service-providing insects. However, their possible impact on male insect reproduction is currently unknown, despite the key role of sex.

Associations of Specific Pesticides and Incident Rheumatoid Arthritis Among Female Spouses in the Agricultural Health Study

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objectives Growing evidence suggests farming and agricultural pesticide use may be associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but few studies have examined specific pesticides and RA among women living on farms, who may personally use pesticides or may be indirectly exposed.

Neem oil (Azadirachta indica) as a promising feedstock for biolubricant production: enzymatic synthesis, process optimization, and molecular studies

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The fuel industry remains closely tied to oil‐based fuels. This relationship is responsible for increasing greenhouse gas emissions. Biofuels are an alternative to petroleum‐based fuels that could make industrial production lines more sustainable.
