Reinforcement Enhancing Effects of Nicotine Via Patch and Nasal Spray [PDF]

open access: yesNicotine & Tobacco Research, 2018
Confirming preclinical findings, nicotine in humans (via smoking) enhances reinforcement from nondrug rewards. Recent demonstration of similar effects with nicotine via e-cigarettes suggests they may also occur when using nicotine replacement therapies (NRT).Effects of nicotine via NRT patch or nasal spray were assessed on responding reinforced by ...

A Regenerative Cardiac Patch Formed by Spray Painting of Biomaterials onto the Heart [PDF]

open access: yesTissue Engineering Part C: Methods, 2017
Layering a regenerative polymer scaffold on the surface of the heart, termed as a cardiac patch, has been proven to be effective in preserving cardiac function after myocardial infarction (MI). However, the placement of such a patch on the heart usually needs open-chest surgery, which is traumatic, therefore prevents the translation of this strategy ...

Spatial re-establishment dynamics of local populations of vectors of Chagas disease. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2009
Prevention of Chagas disease depends mainly on control of the insect vectors that transmit infection. Unfortunately, the vectors have been resurgent in some areas. It is important to understand the dynamics of reinfestation where it occurs.

Effect of site-specific weed management in winter crops on yield and weed populations

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2014
Site-specific weed management (SSWM) methods allow spatially variable treatment of weed populations according to actual weed abundance, thus offering the opportunity for herbicide savings.

Intra‐site sources of restoration variability in severely invaded rangeland: Strong temporal effects of herbicide–weather interactions; weak spatial effects of plant community patch type and litter

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, 2022
Invasions by exotic annual grasses (EAGs) are replacing native perennials in semiarid areas globally, including the vast sagebrush‐steppe rangelands of western North America.

Improving the efficiency of spatially selective operations for agricultural robotics in cropping field

open access: yesSpanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2013
Cropping fields often have well-defined poor-performing patches due to spatial and temporal variability. In an attempt to increase crop performance on poor patches, spatially selective field operations may be performed by agricultural robotics to apply ...

The Sky Is Not the Limit: Use of a Spray Drone for the Precise Application of Herbicide and Control of an Invasive Plant in Managed Wetlands

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Controlling non-native plant invasions that reduce the quality of preferred wetland habitats is a challenge for many wetland managers. Herbicides may be used to control invasions, but it may be difficult to find effective application methods depending on
