This study was carried out with the objective of evaluating the efficacy of a 2,6-dichlorophenol (2,6-DCP) lure to control Dermacentor nitens (Acari: Ixodidae). Slow-release formulations of the pheromone formulated with and without cypermethrin were prepared. Olfactometer bioassays were used to
2,4-Dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) and 2,6-dichlorophenol (2,6-DCP) undergo oxidation, nitrosation and nitration in the presence of nitrate under UV irradiation. Nitration is favoured under acidic conditions, most likely because HNO(2) is formed on nitrate photolysis. The most likely photonitration pathway is the
The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of 2,6-dichlorophenol (2,6-DCP) as sex pheromone of Anocentor nitens. Sex pheromones were extracted by submerging 150 female fed for 6 days in hexane (3 ml) for two hours and sonicating
Distribution variation of a metabolic uncoupler, 2,6-dichlorophenol (2,6-DCP), in long-term sludge culture was studied, and the effects on sludge reduction and biological inhibition of this chemical during the 90-day operation were established. The extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) matrix functioned as
Actually there is a great trend on the development of effective analytical methods for monitoring trace levels of various phenols which can indicate, among others compounds, the water quality. A simple, inexpensive supported liquid membrane (SLM) device was used in
