PURPOSE: The quantification of parent molecules of pyrethroids tetramethrin and resmethrin in human specimens by a mass spectrometry (MS) technique has not been reported yet. A woman in her 60s was found dead in a wasteland. At the scene, an empty be...
Valeriana is a common plant species used for various healing purposes in folk medicine since antiquity. This study investigates the phytochemical profile, antioxidant, cytotoxic, and insecticidal activity of Valeriana alliariifolia Adams, a species t...
Cypermethrin is a frequently used insecticide in agriculture and households but its chronic and molecular effects are poorly known are . Here we describe effects of sublethal cypermethrin exposure on the global transcriptome in the brain of honey bee...

<b>Background and Objective:</b> In recent years, nanoemulsions have been used to target pest toxicity due to the dangers of chemical pesticides. The current study investigated the insecticidal activity of the mandarin crust oil (<i>...
Increased global production of sorghum has the potential to meet many of the demands of a growing human population. Developing automation technologies for field scouting is crucial for long-term and low-cost production. Since 2013, sugarcane aphid (S...
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into smart agriculture boosts production and management efficiency, facilitating sustainable agricultural development. In intensive agricultural management, adopting eco-friendly and effective pesticide...
Insect populations are declining globally, with multiple potential drivers identified. However, experimental data are needed to understand their relative contributions. We highlight the sublethal effects of pesticides at field-relevant concentrations...
The widespread use of pesticides, including diazinon, poses an increased risk of environmental pollution and detrimental effects on biodiversity, food security, and water resources. In this study, we investigated the impact of Potentially Toxic Eleme...
Understanding mosquito behaviours is vital for the development of insecticide-treated nets (ITNs), which have been successfully deployed in sub-Saharan Africa to reduce disease transmission, particularly malaria. However, rising insecticide resistanc...
