Standardization of bioassays for monitoring resistance to insecticides in Aedes aegypti
(2005-12-01)
Since the reintroduction of Aedes aegypti in Brazil in the 1980s, insecticide use for its control is routine. The chemical control efficacy is threatened by vectors developing resistance to insecticides. The World Health ...
Impact on public health of the spread of high-level resistance to gentamicin and vancomycin in enterococci
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2018-03)
Antibiotic resistance has turned into a global public health issue. Enterococci are intrinsically resistant to many antimicrobials groups. These bacteria colonize dairy and meat products and integrate the autochthonous ...
Experimental methods for estimation of plant fitness costs associated with herbicide-resistance genes
(Weed Science Society of America, 2015-01)
Since the beginning of agriculture, crops have been exposed to recurrent invasion by weeds that can impose severe reductions in crop quality and yield. There have been continuing efforts to reduce the impacts of weeds on ...
Resisting and surviving the mainstream scientific model: findings on social relevance and social impact in the tropics
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2017-02)
The question of the social relevance and social impact of knowledge has gained prominence. However, the debate appears to have been restricted to academia in North America and the United Kingdom, which possess their ...
Effect of the fibre type on concrete impact resistance
(Elsevier, 2020-12)
Fibre Reinforced Concrete performance is evaluated in terms of bending residual stresses. Although fibre concrete is suitable for structures exposed to impacts and other extreme loads, there is not much information about ...
A sampling of CIMMYT impacts, 1998: ten case studies
(CIMMYT, 2012)
Biogeographical variation in antimicrobial resistance in rivers is influenced by agriculture and is spread through bacteriophages
(WILEY, 2022)
Antibiotic resistance is currently an extensive medical challenge worldwide, with global numbers increasing steadily. Recent data have highlighted wastewater treatment plants as a reservoir of resistance genes. The impact ...
Impact strength and abrasion resistance of high strength concrete with rice husk ash and rubber tires
(IBRACON - Instituto Brasileiro do Concreto, 2013-10-01)
The paper discusses the application of High Strength Concrete (HSC) technology for concrete production with the incorporation of Rice Husk Ash (RHA) residues by replacing a bulk of the material caking and rubber tires with ...
Impact of Galectins in Resistance to Anticancer Therapies
(American Association for Cancer Research, 2020-07)
Galectins are an endogenous family of β-galactoside-binding proteins that play complex and multifaceted roles at various stages of cancer progression, including modulation of tumor cell proliferation, signaling, adhesion, ...
