This article reviews silicene, a relatively new allotrope of silicon, which can also be viewed
as the silicon version of graphene. Graphene is a two-dimensional material with unique …

Abstract Dysphania ambrosioides (L.) Mosyakin & Clemants (Amaranthaceae) and
Clausena anisata (Willd.) Hook. f. ex Benth.(Rutaceae) are two aromatic species traditionally …

High resistance ability on insecticides among major mosquito vectors of diseases in Nigeria
is of growing concern for severe control strategies. The objective of this study was to assess …

Mosquitoes serve as vectors for various diseases like malaria, dengue fever, yellow fever,
and lymphatic filarial diseases causing significant global health problems, highlighting the …

Diseases caused by mosquitoes have been a threat all around the globe since ages and
humans have been coping with the disease spread in various possible ways. Mosquitoes …

Graphyne-based two-dimensional heterostructures have displayed excellent potential in
nanoelectronic devices. Herein, a novel vertical graphyne/MoSe2 van der Waals (vdW) …

In ultra-thin film topological insulators existence of substrate breaks the structural inversion
symmetry. The structure inversion asymmetry (SIA) can be modeled as effective potential V …

In this chapter, we discuss the physical properties of free-standing silicene. Silicene is a
single atomic layer of silicon much like graphene. The interest in silicene is exactly the same …

Detoxification of insecticides involving major metabolic/detoxifying enzymes and target-site
insensitivity is among the two most important mechanisms of biochemical resistance …

Repeated exposure to insecticides, particularly pyrethroids and organophosphates, has
resulted in the development of insecticide resistance in the mosquito Culex pipiens, a …
