Unveiling the Impact of Microstructure Alterations on Photocatalytic Hydrogen Peroxide Preparation via DFT Prediction and Analysis

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Under illumination conditions, ToRed series of catalysts absorb photon energy to generate photogenerated electron–hole pairs, which catalyze the formation of hydrogen peroxide from water. Photocatalytic technology has attracted much attention in the fields of clean energy and environmental governance. However, how to design and develop highly efficient

RNA Interference in Insects: Protecting Beneficials and Controlling Pests

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Insects constitute the largest and most diverse group of animals on Earth with an equally diverse virome. The main antiviral immune system of these animals is the post-transcriptional gene-silencing mechanism known as RNA(i) interference.

Cytotoxicity of 19 Pesticides in Rainbow Trout Gill, Liver, and Intestinal Cell Lines

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract The rainbow trout gill cell line (RTgill‐W1), via test guideline 249 of the Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development, has been established as a promising New Approach Methodology, although to advance confidence in the method more case studies are needed that: 1) expand our understanding of applicability domains (chemicals with ...

Modeling and Optimal Control Applied to a Vector Borne Disease [PDF]

open access: yesProc. 12th Int. Conf. Comp. Math. Meth. Sci. Eng. (CMMSE'2012), Murcia 02-05 July 2012 (Ed: J. Vigo-Aguiar), Vol. III (2012), 1063--1070, 2012
A model with six mutually-exclusive compartments related to Dengue disease is presented. In this model there are three vector control tools: insecticides (larvicide and adulticide) and mechanical control. The problem is studied using an Optimal Control (OC) approach. The human data for the model is based on the Cape Verde Dengue outbreak.

Regional adaptation of integrated pest management to control invasive forest insects

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Globalization is increasing the threat of invasive forest insects to ecosystems. Control efforts against the same pest species progressively occur across distant jurisdictions as integrated pest management (IPM) programs or tactics developed in one region are adopted by another region.
