Efficacy of Calcipotriol/Betamethasone Ointment in Facial Discoid Dermatosis
ABSTRACT Facial Discoid Dermatosis (FDD) is a rare chronic skin condition characterised by persistent, annular erythematous and desquamative papules on the face. Its aetiology is unclear, making differential diagnosis challenging. Key clinical features include pink‐orange, minimally scaling lesions limited to the face, sudden onset with long‐term ...

Response of Amblyseius swirskii to deltamethrin
The analysis of toxicological and molecular data reveals target‐site as well as metabolic modifications associated with the resistance to deltamethrin in Amblyseius swirskii colonies. However, semi‐field assays show increased run‐off behavior after treatments with the same pesticide.

Comparative gene expression analysis between susceptible and diflubenzuron‐resistant individuals of the mosquito Culex pipiens revealed transcriptional changes of multiple genes associated with insecticide detoxification and cuticle synthesis. Abstract Background Chitin‐synthesis inhibitors (CSIs) represent a major tool in vector control. The intensive

Cytogenetic effects of permethrin in cultured human lymphocytes [PDF]
The pyrethroid insecticide permethrin was tested for its ability to induce sister chromatid exchanges (SCE), micronuclei (MN) and structural chromosome aberrations (CA) in cultured human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Permethrin was tested in the range of 5-500 micrograms/ml in the absence and in the presence of a rat liver activation system (S9 mix ...

All Spodoptera frugiperda were rice strain with two haplotypes, likely from a common mixed source. ABCC2 and Ace‐1 mutations, conferring resistance to Bacillus thuringiensis and organophosphates/carbamates, respectively, were detected. Abstract BACKGROUND The invasive fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda, FAW), a highly destructive pest affecting more ...
