Trends and Perspectives in Immunosensors for Determination of Currently-Used Pesticides: The Case of Glyphosate, Organophosphates, and Neonicotinoids

Biosensors, 2019
Pesticides, due to their intensive use and their peculiar chemical features, can persist in the environment and enter the trophic chain, thus representing an environmental risk for the ecosystems and human health.

Efficacy of Zeolite and Kaolin in the Control of Cacopsylla pyri (L.) (Hemiptera: Psyllidae) and Compatibility With Its Natural Antagonist Anthocoris nemoralis (Fabricius) (Hemiptera: Anthocoridae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The pear psyllid Cacopsylla pyri is a major pest of European pear orchards, responsible for significant yield losses. Its management is increasingly challenged by restrictions on synthetic active ingredients, resistance development, and the shift towards sustainable production systems.

Low Rates of Kaolin in Different Application Periods Reduce Diaphorina citri Population and Huanglongbing Incidence in Commercial Citrus Orchards

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Huanglongbing (HLB) is the most destructive citrus disease worldwide, and it has been disseminated by the Asian citrus psyllid Diaphorina citri, the vector of the causing agent Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus. Although processed kaolin reduces psyllid infestation, long‐term field data from commercial orchards are limited.

Effects of organophosphates on neural and purified liver tissue transglutaminase

, 2010
Transglutaminase 2 (TGase 2) is a multifunctional calcium dependent enzyme that catalyzes protein modifications. TGase 2 is essential in neuronal cell differentiation and it has been reported that certain organophosphates are able to inhibit this process,

The importance of longitudinal evaluation using DAT-SPECT in organophosphate-induced toxic parkinsonism. [PDF]

PCN Rep
We performed longitudinal evaluation using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and dopamine transporter single‐photon emission computed tomography (DAT‐SPECT) in a case of organophosphate‐induced toxic parkinsonism. Fluid‐attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) images showed bilateral striatal hyperintensity in the acute phase, followed by reduction of ...

Air exposure test in Colossoma macropomum juveniles maintained in water at suboptimal temperature: Physiological, metabolic and oxidative stress responses

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluated the physiological, metabolic and oxidative responses of Colossoma macropomum subjected to air exposure when maintained in water at suboptimal temperature (23°C). A total of 54 fish (81.33 ± 11.90 g) were distributed into nine tanks (6 fish per tank). For the air exposure test, 24 animals were exposed for 30 min and another

The Generics Revolution and the New Economic Geography of the Global Pesticide Industry

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global pesticide industry transformed from one dominated by patented products and legacy multinationals with strong manufacturing bases in the United States and EU to one dominated by generic products produced in India and China. We use proprietary market research data, data from regulatory filings, industry press and bilateral trade data ...

The comparative toxicity of developmental inhibitors and organophosphates on mosquitoes

, 1976
Four developmental inhibitors (Altosid, Altozar, ZR-619 and ZR-777) and two organophosphates (Parathion and Abate) were tested on Aedes aegypti under laboratory conditions.
