Acetylcholinesterase inhibition in organophosphate-resistant Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae) [PDF]
Populacoes de Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) resistente e susceptivel a inseticidas fosforados foram investigadas para verificar a ocorrencia de acetilcolinesterase alterada. Malaoxon, a diferentes concentracoes, foi utilizado como inibidor em ensaios colorimetricos "in vitro".

Epoxy tetrahydrophthalimides as potential bioactive agents: synthesis and computational study
Epoxy tetrahydrophthalimides were synthesized and evaluated for phytotoxic activity. Some compounds showed greater inhibition than S‐metolachlor against Sorghum bicolor. Docking studies indicated interaction with mitogen‐activated protein kinase, suggesting it as a potential target.
