Potential of emodepside for vector-borne disease control by Khemrattrakool, P, Hongsuwong, T, Phanphoowong, T, Sriwichai, P, Poovorawan, K, Tarning, J, Kobylinski, KC

“…The An. dirus emodepside LC50 was 4,623 [4,159–5,066] ng/ml which is > 100-fold greater than the peak concentrations seen in human. The ivermectin and emodepside co-feed experiment with An. dirus did not indicate any altered effect of ivermectin on mosquito survival when emodepside co-fed at human Cmax or five times that of the human Cmax. …”

Green practices in the hotel industry: the push and pull factors by Aripin, Norhani, Amran, Noor Afza, Saad, Natrah, Awalludin, Noor Rohin

“…The objective of this study is to determine the motivational factors and barriers that influence the implementation of green practices in Malaysian hotels. The environmental issue in Malaysia has a long history, which began with river pollution because of tin mining operations.It has now become more critical as air pollution and waste disposal by the hotel industry have a negative impact on the environment.A total of 86 questionnaires were received from four-star and five-star hotels in Selangor, Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya.The dependent variable is green practices, while the independent variables are motivational factors and barriers. …”
