Exposure to pesticides in ambient air
Abstract: Ambient air was monitored for pesticides at four sites in Coffs Harbour, a coastal town (population about 50 000) surrounded by banana plantations. Air was sampled continuously for five consecutive months during the peak agricultural spraying period using vacuum pumps set to sample one litre per minute through ORBO‐42 adsorption tubes.

TECTB Variants Reveal Tectorial Membrane Vulnerability in Dominant Non‐Syndromic Hearing Loss
TECTB is a non‐collagenous protein of the tectorial membrane – an extracellular matrix of the cochlea. This study identifies dominant missense variants in TECTB linked to human hereditary deafness in two unrelated families. Genetically engineered mice homozygous for one of the variants are profoundly deaf, whereas heterozygous mice have normal hearing ...

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.

Association of pesticide exposure with human congenital abnormalities
Human pesticide exposure can occur both occupationally and environmentally during manufacture and after the application of indoor and outdoor pesticides, as well as through consumption via residues in food and water.

The transcription factor MoSR governs DMI fungicide sensitivity in Magnaporthe oryzae through dual regulation of ergosterol biosynthesis and the detoxification enzyme MoDde1. Targeting MoDde1 via a small‐molecule inhibitor or host‐induced gene silencing enhances DMI efficacy against rice blast, offering a sustainable disease management strategy ...

Porphyrin‐Based Porous Materials for Antibacterial Applications
Porphyrin‐based porous materials have excellent photophysical properties and tunable structures for high‐efficiency antibacterial therapy. This review comprehensively discusses the structural design strategies and synthetic pathways of the four main types of porphyrin‐based porous materials, summarizes their cross‐domain antimicrobial applications, and
