Pesticide Safety Miniposter: Pesticide Emergencies

EDIS, 2012
This poster introduces new pest control technicians to the general actions to be taken in the event of pesticide exposure. Technicians learn to recognize symptoms of exposure as they watch videos linked to the quick response (QR) codes on the poster. The

Parkinson's disease and pesticide exposures [PDF]

British Medical Bulletin, 2006
Idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder in which loss of dopaminergic neurons in the basal ganglia leads to tremor, bradykinesia, rigidity and postural instability.Literature search using Medline with keywords 'Parkinson's disease' and 'pesticides', limited to English, was undertaken, supplemented by articles from the author'

A Disaggregation Strategy for Nanopesticide Fabrication: Investigating the Impact of Nanosizing on Pesticide Biointeractions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
To explore the impact of nanosizing on pesticide biointeractions, a 7‐nm (average) emamectin benzoate nanopesticide without nanocarriers or surfactants is fabricated via HOAc‐mediated disaggregation. Nanosizing enhances bioactivity against Megalurothrips usitatus and Meloidogyne enterolobii and improves plant penetration.

Association between pesticide exposure and sleep health among a representative sample of US adults: evidence from NHANES 2009–2014

BMC Public Health, 2021
Background Data suggest that pesticides interact with the melatonin receptor, which may influence sleep. However, the link between pesticides and sleep remains unexplored among the general adult population.

Morphological and physico-chemical properties of British aquatic habitats potentially exposed to pesticides. [PDF]

, 2006
Approaches to describe the exposure of non-target aquatic organisms to agricultural pesticides can be limited by insufficient knowledge of the environmental conditions where the compounds are used.

Multi‐Stimuli‐Responsive Hydrogen‐Bonded Organic Frameworks Nanocarriers Enable Targeted Fungicide Release and Plant Immune Regulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A fluorinated hydrogen‐bonded organic framework nanocarrier (PFC‐1‐F) loaded with PYR and coated with HACC enables multi‐stimuli‐responsive (enzyme/ROS/pH) release at infection sites. Exhibiting targeted antifungal activity against Sclerotium rolfsii, modulating plant antioxidant defense, and demonstrating favorable biosafety across plant, soil, and ...

A Meta-Analysis of the Willingness to Pay for Reductions in Pesticide Risk Exposure [PDF]

The use of environmental policy instruments such as eco-labelling and pesticide taxes should preferably be based on disaggregate estimates of the individuals' willingness to pay (WTP) for pesticide risk reductions.

Robust Amorphous MOF‐Based Aerogels Digital Biosensor for Sensitive Detection of Organophosphate Pesticides

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We report a robust aerogel digital biosensor by integrating an enzyme‐mediated amorphous MOF within an aerogel matrix for on‐site pesticide detection. The enzyme‐mediated assembly strategy enables in situ tailoring of MOF into a porous amorphous structure, achieving both high stability and activity.

Multi‐Band Excitation of NIR‐II Lanthanide Nanoparticles via Multiple‐Dye Cascade Sensitization

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A cascade multiple‐dye sensitization strategy that enables lanthanide‐doped DSNPs to be efficiently excited across the entire UV–Vis–NIR window (270–1030 nm) while retaining strong and tunable NIR‐II emission. ABSTRACT Lanthanide‐doped downshifting nanoparticles (DSNPs) emitting in the near‐infrared‐II (NIR‐II) window offer distinct advantages for deep‐

Assessment of pesticide exposure to applicators during spraying in orchards with a stretcher-mounted sprayer

Heliyon
Various health risk assessment models have been developed to evaluate occupational pesticide exposure in China. However, there has been limited investigation into the relationship between health risks and pesticide spraying in orchards. In this study, we
