A bioassay to evaluate native plant extracts as slug feeding deterrents

Antibacterial Activity of Selected Australian Native Plant Extracts

A System Dynamics Model to Evaluate Emissions in A Combined Cycle Power Plant

Environment and the need to protect and care for it, is one of the main concerns of industrial development in todaychr('39')s society; and air pollution is one of the most noticeable and tangible causes of it. The increasingly growth of the industry has led to the production and diffusion of gaseous pollutants into the air and among them; thermal power plants are one of the most important sourc...

Structural Activity of Bovidic Acid and Related Compounds as Feeding Deterrents against Aedes aegypti

Natural products present in preferred and non-preferred animal hosts of biting insects can exhibit interesting semiochemical properties. Recently, a novel fatty acid compound that acts as a feeding deterrent for blood sucking insects was identified from the gaur (Bos frontalis). In our laboratory we have prepared analogues of this novel fatty acid and explored their structure activity relations...
