Integrated control of ticks and tick-borne diseases of cattle in Africa
Parasitology, 1988 SummaryThe problems caused by tick and tick-borne diseases for livestock particularly cattle on the African continent are described and discussed. The control of ticks and tick-borne diseases must receive high priority in Africa with regard to both research and control application because of their widespread distribution in areas of high livestock ...

A Formulation to Encapsulate Nootkatone for Tick Control [PDF]
Journal of Medical Entomology, 2011 Nootkatone is a component of grapefruit oil that is toxic to the disease-vectoring tick, Ixodes scapularis Say, but unfortunately causes phytotoxicity to treated plants and has a short residual activity due to volatility. We prepared a lignin-encapsulated nootkatone formulation to compare with a previously used emulsifiable formulation for volatility ...

Control of tick-borne diseases
International Journal for Parasitology, 1987 Abstract The control of tick-borne protozoan diseases (babesiosis and theileriosis) depends on judicious integration of management, vector control, chemotherapy and immunization. The relative importance of each method will depend on the animal species involved as well as epidemiological and financial considerations.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Diels‐Alder clicks chemistry addresses thermal runaway in lithium‐ion batteries. A thermoresponsive electrolyte with lithium salt in vinylene carbonate (VC) and 2,5‐dimethylfuran (DMFu) operates at room temperature but undergoes Diels‐Alder reactions at high temperatures, enabling a two‐step safety mechanism: a warning phase at ≈100 °C and complete ...

A fine-grain time-sharing Time Warp system [PDF]
, 2017 Although Parallel Discrete Event Simulation (PDES) platforms relying on the Time Warp (optimistic) synchronization protocol already allow for exploiting parallelism, several techniques have been proposed to further favor performance.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Exosomes can reduce tissue damage in temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA), but rapid clearance limits their efficacy. This study encapsulates exosomes in hyaluronic acid hydrogels for controlled release. In a rat model, hydrogel‐encapsulated exosomes outperform free exosomes in preserving bone integrity and reducing tissue destruction ...
