Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment on Biocides Bioaccumulation in Mullet Liza klunzingeri in Kuwaiti Waters, off the Arabian GulfA.H. Bu-Olayan, B. V. ThomasBiocides, such as formaldehyde (HCHO), sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and glutaraldehyde (C5H8O2) that are commonly used in thermal, desalination and power plants and industries were tested on the commercially important mullet fish, Liza klunzingeri to determine the environmental contamination in the stressed ecosystem of Kuwait Bay sites. Multi-factor Probit analysis toxicity tests (96 h) on L. klunzingeri showed the lowest observed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,768 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDevelopment and Evaluation of Acaricidal Soap Formulated from Azadirachta indica (Neem) and Carica Papaya (Papaya) Leaf Extracts Using Bio-Assay Guided ApproachAlfredo V. Corpuz, Carmela Montoya Florentino, Ace Danielle C. AveroThe environment, human health, and animals are all at risk as a result of the pervasive use of chemical-based products to control ticks and lice in animals, mostly dogs. This investigation was designed to assess the efficacy and physicochemical properties of an acaricidal soap for canines that was formulated using Azadirachta indica and Carica papaya leaf extracts. The soap was … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 27 Nov 2025 · 3,082 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordBioactivity of Sumac (Rhus Coriaria) Extract as a Green Alternative for Plant Pathogen InhibitionMohammed H. Al-Mamoori, Meisam Zargar, Elena N. Pakina, Fatih DadaşoğluEnvironmental stress caused by pathogenic fungi leads to considerable losses in global crop productivity. Plant-derived extracts are eco-friendly and sustainable alternatives that can inhibit biotic stresses. Sumac (Rhus coriaria) is widely used in industrial and medicinal applications due to its extract rich in secondary metabolites, similar to those found in chemical pesticides and pharmaceuticals. This study aimed to characterize the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 25 Nov 2025 · 2,209 accessesView PDFCite
