LABORATORY TESTS FOR BLUEBERRY INSECT CONTROL WITH SPINOSAD, 1998

Susceptibility of laboratory and field strains of four stored-product insect species to spinosad.

Two field strains of the Indianmeal moth, Plodia interpunctella (Hübner); red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum (Herbst); and lesser grain borer, Rhyzopertha dominica (F.), and one field strain of the rusty grain beetle, Cryptolestes ferrugineus (Stephens), were collected from hard red winter wheat stored on farms in northeastern Kansas. Fifty eggs of P. interpunctella and 25 beetle adults of e...

Chlordane Rates High in Insect Control Tests

Virtual ly 32 years ago in the summer of 1B16 a small number of green ajid brown beetles were collected al Riverton, N . J. They were sent to the United States National Museum in Washington where taxonomic experts identified them as the Japanese beetle. I t was believed the insect made its accidental introduction into this country a year or two earl ier as grubs in soil around the roots of exot...

Interference in laboratory tests

Interference in clinical laboratory testing can create discrepancies in test results which can lead to patient harm.  In clinical chemistry, interference is defined as a cause of medically significant difference in the measurand test result due to another component or property of the sample. Interference by endogenous and exogenous substances with assays for clinical analytes is a common prob...

Sprinkler Irrigation Runoff and Erosion Control with Polyacrylamide — Laboratory Tests

Many semiarid and arid soils are prone to irrigation-induced erosion. Polyacrylamide (PAM) greatly reduces erosion from furrow irrigation. We hypothesized that PAM applied via sprinklers will provide erosion control and benefit water infiltration and aggregate stability. Screened (6.4 mm) Rad silt loam (coarse silty, mixed, superactive mesic Durinodic Xeric Haplocambid) was placed in 1.5 by 1.2...
