Background: Thanks to the changes in aquatic risk assessment within the marketing authorization (MA) process in France, the contamination of surface water through the subsurface drainage network is better accounted for. The measure adopted by risk regulations is to prohibit any use of selected pesticides on drained plots. Herbicide solutions on subsurface-drained plots are becoming scarce due to a limited number of innovations combined with the re-approvals process.

Influence of more than 20 years (1988-2010) of reduced tillage (RT) practices on water and pesticide balances and dynamics is analyzed and compared to results from a conventional tillage plot (CT). The field study soils are described as silty clay stagnic luvisol, developed on a low permeable schist layer. A drainage network was set up according to French criteria (0.

Relapse after treatment of a spinal infection is infrequent and difficult to diagnose. The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic performance of [(18)F]fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG PET/CT) in this setting. Thirty patients (21 men, nine women; median age 61.

The effect of puromycin on absorption balance and mucosal lipid distribution was studied during intestinal absorption of 14C oleic acid and 3H palmitic acid, using the isolated intestinal loop of male and female rats in situ. In puromycin-treated animals, mucosal lipid uptake was reduced and mucosal lipid content increased, particularly with oleic acid and in male rats. The phospholipids were significantly reduced.
