متن کاملOn-line DDT determination in blood serum: experimental parameters.
DDT is largely used in Brazil for the malaria vector control. Due to this application, problems related to contamination risks of exposed professionals are often detected. Analysis of this pesticide and its analogs in blood can be used to estimate their concentrations in human body. Studies of the determination of organochlorine pesticide residues in human serum have been accomplished in Brazil...
متن کاملA rule-based vs. a set-covering implementation of the knowledge system LIMPACT and its significance for maintenance and discovery of ecological knowledge
The knowledge system LIMPACT estimates the pesticide contamination of small lowland streams within agricultural catchment areas. The system considers the abundance of 39 macroinvertebrate taxa during four time frames (T1: March/April, T2: May/June, T3: July/August and T4: September/October) within a year. The four diagnoses Not Detected (ND), Low (L), Moderate (M) and High (H) pesticide contami...
