Antimicrobial prescribing guidelines for horses in Australia
The growing problem of antimicrobial resistance also affects equine veterinarians with increasing frequency. Antimicrobial stewardship and responsible prescribing are essential for a future in which effective antimicrobials are available, as it is unlikely that new antimicrobials will become available for use in horses.

“On Water” Photochemistry: Visible‐Light‐Induced Synthesis of Diaryl Sulfides by Nitrogen Extrusion
This study demonstrates an efficient and versatile blue light‐mediated synthesis of dissymmetric diaryl sulfides by nitrogen photoextrusion from diarylazo sulfides. The reaction is carried out “on water” without the need for (photo)catalysts or additives.

The impact of long-lasting microbial larvicides in reducing malaria transmission and clinical malaria incidence: study protocol for a cluster randomized controlled trial. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The massive scale-up of insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) has led to a substantial increase in malaria vector insecticide resistance as well as in increased outdoor transmission, both of which hamper the ...

BVA 2 mosquito larvicide--a new surface oil larvicide for mosquito control.
BVA 2 mosquito larvicide was evaluated in laboratory pan tests against 3rd-instar Aedes taeniorhynchus (Wied.), Culex quinquefasciatus Say, and Culex nigripalpus Theobald larvae. BVA 2 was as effective as the standard, GB-1111, at 14 liters/ha (> 99.1% vs. 99.8%).

Modeling and Optimal Control Applied to a Vector Borne Disease
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.
