CITRICOLA SCALE INSECTICIDE TRIAL, 2012

SUMITOMO KAGAKU 2012 Development of the Novel Insecticide Spinetoram

Spinetoram is a derivative of biological active substances (spinosyns) produced by the soil actinomycete Saccharopolyspora spinosa, and is a semi-synthetic spinosyn discovered during modification studies of natural substances by Dow AgroSciences LLC.1) Regarding spinetoram development, foreign countries have preceded Japan. Spinetoram’s pesticide registration was approved in New Zealand in 2007...

The Geologic Time Scale 2012

The sulfur isotopic composition of dissolved sulfate in seawater has varied through time. Distinct variations and relatively high rates of change characterize certain time intervals. This allows for dating and correlation of sediments using sulfur isotopes. The variation in sulfur isotopes and the potential stratigraphic resolution of this isotope system is discussed and graphically displayed.

Geologic Time Scale 2012 publication

This report summarizes the international divisions and ages in the Geologic Time Scale, published in 2012 (GTS2012). Since 2004, when GTS2004 was detailed, major developments have taken place that directly bear and have considerable impact on the intricate science of geologic time scaling. Precam brian now has a detailed proposal for chronostratigraphic subdivision instead of an outdated and ab...

Pralidoxime in Acute Organophosphorus Insecticide Poisoning—A Randomised Controlled Trial

BACKGROUND Poisoning with organophosphorus (OP) insecticides is a major global public health problem, causing an estimated 200,000 deaths each year. Although the World Health Organization recommends use of pralidoxime, this antidote's effectiveness remains unclear. We aimed to determine whether the addition of pralidoxime chloride to atropine and supportive care offers benefit. METHODS AND FI...
