A comprehensive assessment of pesticides in surface waters is challenging due to the large number of potential contaminants. Most scientific studies and routine monitoring programs include only 15-40 pesticides, which leads to error-prone interpretations. ...
A biological and chemical sample processing device that b. comprises a high pressure-resistant, shallow and wide area microfluidic chamber having at least one wall formed by a detachable slide containing samples such as immobilized entities, biological sam ...
If an organism does not feed, it dies of starvation. Even though some insecticides which are used to control pests in agriculture can interfere with feeding behavior of insects and other invertebrates, the link from chemical exposure via affected feeding a ...
This paper proposes and tests a model which couples the description of hydrologic flow and transport of herbicides at catchment scales. The model accounts for streamflow components' age to characterize short and long term fluctuations of herbicide flux con ...
Acetylcholine is a key neurotransmitter, and anticholinesterase agents are essential compounds used as medical drugs, pesticides, and chemical warfare agents. A semisynthetic fluorescence-based probe for the direct, real-time detection of acetylcholine and ...
The work presented focuses on the analysis of a police investigation implemented in the computing environment SCY-Lab. The prime objective is to check if the implementation of the situation helps pupils change their conceptions concerning the DNA molecule ...
Valorization of lignocellulosic biomass for the production of commodity chemicals using various chemical methods continues to attract considerable attention. A wide and diverse range of different chemicals can be obtained from biomass and many different do ...
The fish early-life stage (FELS) test (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development [OECD] test guideline 210) is the primary test used internationally to estimate chronic fish toxicity in support of ecological risk assessments and chemical manag ...
We present here a model which couples the hydrologic component and the transport of herbicides within a catchment. The model used takes into account the age structure of the stream water in order to characterize short and long term fluctuations of herbicid ...
Transport of individual cells or chemical payloads on a subcellular scale is an enabling tool for the study of cellular com- munication, cell migration, and other localized phenomena. We present a magnetically actuated robotic system capable of fully autom ...
