Abstract Soil fumigation is a well-established method for controlling soil-borne diseases. Better quantification of soil available nitrogen and trace elements may provide recommendations on the safe effective application fumigants. The effects four fumigants (including Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn Cd) were investigated in laboratory incubation with agricultural soil. results showed that increased mineral...

abstract indian meal moth, plodia interpunctella hübner (pyralidae) is one of the most important stored-product insects that are controlled by fumigants. however, the use of plant essential oils and their constituents may have the advantage over conventional fumigants in terms of low mammalian toxicity and can be used as alternatives to conventional fumigants. therefore, in this research, repel...

indian meal moth, plodia interpunctella hubner is one of the most important stored-product insects that are controlled by fumigants. however, the use of plant essential oils and their constituents may have the advantage over conventional fumigants in terms of low mammalian toxicity and can be used as alternatives to conventional fumigants. therefore, in this research, repellent activity of 18 p...

The inorganic nitrogenous amendments calcium cyanamide (CC), ammonia water (AW), and a mixture of ammonium bicarbonate with lime (A+L) are popularly used as fumigants to control soil-borne disease in China. However, it is unclear which of these fumigants is more effective in controlling R. solanacearum. This present study compared the efficiencies of the three nitrogenous amendments listed abov...

Pesticides have been specifically associated with the t(14;18)(q32;q21) chromosomal translocation. To investigate whether the association between pesticides and risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) differs for molecular subtypes of NHL defined by t(14; 18) status, we obtained 175 tumor blocks from case subjects in a population-based case-control study conducted in Nebraska between 1983 and 1986. ...

Costs of fumigating a food processing/warehouse facility using Methyl Bromide and ProFume are compared using an economic-engineering approach. The two fumigants are also compared for fumigating cocoa beans.

Yates, S. R., Gan, J., Papiernik, S. K., Dungan, R., and Wang, D. 2002. Reducing fumigant emissions after soil application. Phytopathology 92:1344-1348. Volatilization and soil transformation are major pathways by which pesticides dissipate from treated agricultural soil. Volatilization is a primary source of unwanted agricultural chemicals in the atmosphere and can significantly affect fumigan...
