What's the difference between insecticide and sabadilla?
Insecticide
Definition:
(n.) An agent or preparation for destroying insects; an insect powder.
Example Sentences:
(1) Biological magnification of insecticides and PCB's occurred in both lakes.
(2) The use of gaseous insecticides in the chemical control of T. infestans is discussed.
(3) Thus, alkaloid and insecticide modifications share many features but differ in how much the conducting properties of the pore are changed and whether the channel can close reversibly while the toxin remains bound.
(4) It was determined that when using the LV method these insecticides were highly effective.
(5) The main findings of the study in comparison with the control group were: Mean OCC residue levels in blood were slightly higher in group A and markedly so in group B; The variability and the extent of departure from normality of distributions of organochlorine insecticides (OCIs) decreased, whereas those of PCBs increased, in arteriosclerotic patients (more markedly in group B); The degree of correlation between blood serum levels of various OCCs was elevated in group A and low in group B.
(6) Subsequent efforts focused on achieving high levels of insecticidal activity while minimizing costs of synthesis and retaining desirable levels of selective toxicity.
(7) Regardless of age, smoking pack-years, and nasal allergic reactions, the prevalence of asthma was significantly associated with the use of carbamate insecticides (prevalence odds ratio = 1.8, 95% confidence interval: 1.1 to 3.1, p = 0.02).
(8) This loss of neural regulation may result from mechanical damage to the pelvic nerves due to childbirth or pelvic surgery, exposure to environmental toxins (e.g., organochlorine insecticides or heavy metals), or possibly exposure to an infectious agent.
(9) [35S]TBPS binding was also inhibited by relatively high concentrations of some pyrethroid insecticides, such as deltamethrin and cypermethrin (1-2 microM).
(10) Because responses of the five parasitoids to the different insecticides varied considerably, general conclusions about parasitoid susceptibility to active ingredients, insecticide class, or method of application were not possible.
(11) Two control trials were conducted against Ae.samoanus larvae in Pandanus, one using a sand culture of the parasitic nematode Romanomermis culicivorax and the other with temephos, an organophosphate insecticide.
(12) The heat shock-induced synthesis of organophosphorus acid hydrolases in transgenic flies conferred enhanced resistance to toxic paralysis by the organophosphate insecticide paraoxon.
(13) In pest control operations, organophosphorus compounds (OP) have been sprayed as insecticides, blood cholinesterase (ChE) activities and urinary alkylphosphate levels were measured for both OP-sprayers (n = 102) and non-sprayers (n = 35) in pest control companies, and the relationship between the analytical results and spraying conditions was investigated.
(14) The target enzymes, acetylcholinesterase (for phosphamidon and carbaryl) and Mg2+ ATPase (for DDT and fenvalerate) have been assayed during exposure and reclamation of these insecticides in M. monoceros.
(15) Improvement in communications, unchecked urbanization and use of inadequate insecticides have promoted widespreading and proliferation of C.p.
(16) Toxicity of these insecticides are in the order: fenvalerate greater than DDT greater than carbaryl greater than phosphamidon.
(17) Out of 859 consecutive cases treated for exposure to organophosphate (PO) insecticides, 53 were included in the study.
(18) stephensi remained susceptible to this insecticide.
(19) Both insecticides did not show promising larvicidal effects.
(20) Skin tests to seasonal outdoor aeroallergens were negative, as were inhalation challenges with two insecticides used inside the building during the honey pack.
Sabadilla
Definition:
(n.) A Mexican liliaceous plant (Schoenocaulon officinale); also, its seeds, which contain the alkaloid veratrine. It was formerly used in medicine as an emetic and purgative.
Example Sentences:
(1) Even for these, pyrethrum, nicotine, rotenone, hellebore, ryania, and sabadilla, there is a paucity of information on mammalian toxicology and environmental effects.
