Disease dynamics of Honeybees with Varroa destructor as parasite and virus vector [PDF]
We propose a honeybee-mite-virus model that incorporates (1) parasitic interactions between honeybees and the Varroa mites; (2) five virus transmission terms between honeybees and mites at different stages of Varroa mites: from honeybees to honeybees, from adult honeybees to phoretic mites, from honeybee brood to reproductive mites, from reproductive ...

Der erste dreischalige ikosaedrische Metallcluster Au147(SPh)30(PPh3)12 wird durch Phosphane und Thiolate stabilisiert und zeigt keine Klammermotive. Dieser Cluster liegt im Grenzbereich zwischen einschaligen Clustern und ikosaedrischen Nanopartikeln.

An epidemiological model of viral infections in a Varroa-infested bee colony: the case of a bee-dependent mite population size [PDF]
In recent years the spread of the ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor has become the most serious threat to worldwide apiculture. In the model presented here we extend the bee population dynamics with mite viral epidemiology examined in an earlier paper by allowing a bee-dependent mite population size.

Effect of improved home ventilation on asthma control and house dust mite allergen levels [PDF]
The warm, humid environment in modern homes favours the dust mite population, but the effect of improved home ventilation on asthma control has not been established.

Wir präsentieren eine metallfreie Methode für die Deuteriummarkierung von Aromaten in deuteriertem HFIP. Dieser Ansatz nutzt die erhöhte Basizität von Aromaten im angeregten Zustand, um den selektiven Wasserstoffisotopenaustausch an schwer zugänglichen Positionen zu ermöglichen.

The carnivorous plant Genlisea harnesses active particle dynamics to prey on microfauna [PDF]
Carnivory in plants is an unusual trait that has arisen multiple times, independently, throughout evolutionary history. Plants in the genus Genlisea are carnivorous, and feed on microorganisms that live in soil using modified subterranean leaf structures (rhizophylls).

The role of volatiles in aggregation and host-seeking of the haematophagous poultry red mite Dermanyssus gallinae (Acari: Dermanyssidae) [PDF]
Infestations with ectoparasitic poultry red mites (Dermanyssus gallinae) pose an increasing threat to poultry health and welfare. Because of resistance to acaricides and higher scrutiny of poultry products, alternative and environmentally safe management
