In our natural products screening program for mosquitoes, we tested essential oils extracted from different plant parts of Magnolia grandiflora L.for their insecticidal and biting deterrent activities against Aedes aegypti.Biting deterrence of seeds essential oil with biting deterrence index value of 0.89 was similar to N,N-diethyl-3-methylbenzamid
This paper SNAPSIES reports a millimeter (mm)-wave type-II dual-loop phase-locked loop (PLL) with low-power and low-complexity design for improving jitter-power performance and power efficiency.Unlike the typical type-II single-loop PLL using a tri-state phase-frequency detector (PFD) plus a charge pump (CP) that has several limits in high-speed op
Abstract The Platelet Derived Growth Factor (PDGF) family of ligands have well established functions in the induction of cell proliferation and migration during development, tissue homeostasis and interactions between tumours and stroma.However, the mechanisms by which these actions are executed are incompletely understood.Here we report a differen
Abstract The relationship between deforestation and malaria is a spatiotemporal process of variation in Plasmodium incidence in human-dominated Amazonian rural environments.The present study aimed to assess the underlying mechanisms of malarial exposure risk at a fine scale in 5-km2 sites across the Brazilian Amazon, using field-collected data with
