The role of soil moisture, light and pH on imidacloprid dissipation was investigated. A high
performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) based method was developed to quantify …

Migratory insects use a variety of innate mechanisms to determine their orientation and
maintain correct bearing. For long-distance migrants, such as the monarch butterfly (Danaus …

Clothianidin (CHN) is a member of the neonicotinoid group of insecticides. Its oxidative and
DNA damage potential for human lung cells are not known. Therefore, the present study was …

A new electrochemical method for determination of imidacloprid using chronopotentiometry
on thin film mercury and glassy carbon electrode was presented. The most important …

Mole crickets (Scapteriscus spp.) are severe subterranean pests of turfgrasses, commonly
targeted with neurotoxic insecticides. Ideally insecticides used against mole crickets should …

Two spectroscopic methods, 1H NMR and FTIR, were developed for the monitoring of the
photocatalytic degradation of acetamiprid, a widely used pyridine-based neonicotinoid …

Occasional reports linking neonicotinoid insecticide applications to field population
outbreaks of the two‐spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch, have been a topic of …

ABSTRACT A liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS)
analytical method using a modified QuEChERS sample preparation for the analysis of …

Insects evolve resistance which constrains the sustainable use of insecticides. Spinosyns, a
class of environmentally-friendly macrolide insecticides, is not an exception. The mode of …

Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is a commercially important fruit crop which is heavily infested
