Density Functional Theory has been utilized to investigate the electronic and structural characteristics of Aluminium phosphide (AlP). The exchange-correlation potential was calculated using Generalized Gradient Approximation. structural, vibrational features AlP diamondoids nanocrystals were investigated at PBE/6-31(d) level, which included polarization functions. Vibrational modes have optimi...

Nutria, Myocastor coypus, populations must be reduced when they cause substantial wetland damage. Control can include the rodenticide zinc phosphide, but the potential impacts to American alligators, Alligator mississippiensis, must be assessed. The mean amount of zinc phosphide per nutria found in nutria carcasses was 50 mg. Risk assessment determined that a conservative estimate for maximum e...

Dear Editor-in-Chief, We read with great interest the article entitled “A review of aluminium phosphide poisoning and a flowchart to treat it” written by Hashemi-Domeneh et al. (1) and recently published in the Archives of Industrial Hygiene and Toxicology. The authors mentioned performing a gastric lavage using a solution of potassium permanganate (1/10000/1 g per 10 L) and administering activ...
