Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how climate change affects pollen levels and aims to enhance pollen forecasting using advanced models like CatBoost and deep learning across 23 cities worldwide.
  • The results show that cities like Mexico City and Santiago have the most accurate pollen forecasts, while Brisbane and Seoul perform poorly, highlighting key environmental factors that influence pollen concentrations.
  • Understanding which environmental variables are most significant for pollen predictions can improve the accuracy of forecasts, making this research valuable for public health and environmental planning.

Arthropods from four genetically modified (GM) maize hybrids (coleopteran resistant, coleopteran and lepidopteran resistant, lepidopteran resistant+herbicide tolerant and coleopteran resistant and herbicide tolerant) and non-GM varieties were sampled during a two-year field assessment. A total number of 363 555 arthropod individuals were collected. This represents the most comprehensive arthropod dataset from GM maize, and together with weed data, is reasonable to determine functional groups of arthropods and interactions between species.

Four genetically modified (GM) maize ( L.) hybrids (coleopteran resistant, coleopteran and lepidopteran resistant, lepidopteran resistant and herbicide tolerant, coleopteran and herbicide tolerant) and its non-GM control maize stands were tested to compare the functional diversity of arthropods and to determine whether genetic modifications alter the structure of arthropods food webs. A total number of 399,239 arthropod individuals were used for analyses.

([3H]5-HT)-uptake and patch-clamp techniques were used to study the actions of (+) and (-) tramadol and the active metabolites of tramadol, (+) and (-) O-demethyl-tramadol on the human serotonin (5-HT) transporter and the human 5-HT3A receptor, stably expressed in HEK-293 cells. The (+) and (-) enantiomers of tramadol suppressed the human 5-HT transporter concentration-dependently (IC50=1.0 and 0.
