Simultaneous removal of neonicotinoid insecticides by a microbial degrading consortium: Detoxification at reactor scale
(ScienceDirect, 2019)
Neonicotinoid insecticides show high persistence in the environment, and standard biological approaches such as biopurification systems have shown mostly inefficient removal of such compounds. In this work, soil pre-exposed ...
Estudios sobre la estabilidad del virus del rayado fino del maíz por degradación enzimática del ARN viral y microscopia electrónica de las partículas
(1986)
The stability of "Maize Rayado Fino Virus" capsids was studied correlating enzymatic degradation analysis of the RNA in full capsids with electron microscopy of negatively stained particles. The great thermal stability of ...
