Sensitivity ofBactrocera invadens(Diptera: Tephritidae) to Methyl Eugenol [PDF]
Bactrocera invadens Drew, Tsuruta & White, 2005 (Diptera: Tephritidae) is an invasive fruit fly pest of Asian origin that was detected for the first time on the African continent in 2003 (Drew et al. 2005; Lux et al. 2003). The pest has spread rapidly since and is now established in several sub-Saharan countries (De Meyer et al. 2012). B.

Vasorelaxant effect of phenylpropanoids: Methyl eugenol and eugenol in human umbilical cord vein
Methyl-eugenol (ME) and eugenol (EUG) are phenylpropanoids with vasodilatory effects. While EUG's vasorelaxant effect in human umbilical artery (HUA) is known, their action in veins is unclear. This study aimed to evaluate ME and EUG in human umbilical vein (HUV). Isolated HUV underwent tension recordings.
