Histopathological characterization of induced Paederus dermatitis caused by Egyptian rove beetles (Paederus alfierii)

open access: yesBeni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 2013
AbstractOutbreaks of Paederus dermatitis (PD) have been reported in Kafr El-Sheikh governorate when Rove Beetles (genus Paederus) are accidentally brushed or crushed on the skin, releasing haemolymph pederin. The aim of this study was to characterize the histopathological changes of induced (PD) caused by Egyptian Rove Beetles (Paederus alfierii ...

Design of a New Coating Agent Based on Graphene Oxide and Antimicrobial/Spermicidal Peptide (Sarcotoxin Pd) for Condom Coating: New Strategy for Prevention of Unplanned Pregnancy and Sexually Transmitted Infections

open access: yesJournal of Nanomaterials, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
In this study, sarcotoxin Pd‐functionalized graphene oxide (GO‐Pd) was synthesized as a new condom‐coating agent. Antimicrobial activity was evaluated by radial diffusion assay (RDA) and absorbance‐based methods. Sperm motility and morphology were assessed in different concentrations of designed nanostructures.

Impact of Pesticides on Diversity and Abundance of Predatory Arthropods in Rice Ecosystem

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Soil Science, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Rice (Oryza sativa) is one of the most important cereal crops with a diverse set of pests and natural enemies. Rice fields often support a high diversity of arthropods which contribute significantly to productivity. This diversity is frequently threatened due to indiscriminate applications of pesticides.

Response of rove‐beetle (Staphylinidae) assemblages to the cumulative effect of wildfire and linear footprint in boreal treed peatlands

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
We studied the short‐term (1 year post‐fire) responses of rove beetle assemblages to the combined effects of wildfire and linear footprint in forest, edge and seismic line habitats at burned and unburned peatlands along the southwest perimeter of the 2016 Horse River wildfire, in Fort McMurray (Alberta), with the objective to address whether fire could
