Quantifying the impact of pesticides on learning and memory in bees
Journal of Applied Ecology, 2018 Most insecticides are insect neurotoxins. Evidence is emerging that sublethal doses of these neurotoxins are affecting the learning and memory of both wild and managed bee colonies, exacerbating the negative effects of pesticide exposure and reducing ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study introduces a small‐molecule additive to improve the stability of stretchable organic field‐effect transistor (OFET). Furthermore, stretchable OFET‐based pesticide sensors with extended‐gate electrodes are constructed. It achieves highly sensitive and precise detection of chlorpyrifos pesticide, reaching a detection limit as low as 0.032 ppb.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study examines the mechanism by which alfalfa saponin (AS) regulates intestinal stemness via modulation of the gut microbiota. The results indicate that AS significantly increases the abundance of Lactobacillus intestinalis, which subsequently activates Wnt signaling via bile acid metabolism and enhances intestinal stemness. These findings provide

Advanced Science, EarlyView.An integrated liquid‐liquid extraction and in situ superwettable membrane separation system is developed for efficient removal of organic pollutants from wastewater. After being treated with this novel technology, the residual organic pollutants are < 1.5 ppm with a removal efficiency > 95.5% and a TOC < 40 ppm, demonstrating a scalable and sustainable

UK and EU policy for approval of pesticides suitable for organic systems: Implications for Wales [PDF]
, 2004 This study was commissioned by the Welsh Assembly Government (WAG) to review the pesticide approval system in the UK and Europe as far as it affects the use of substances and techniques for crop protection by organic producers in Wales. WAG considers it
