Introduction: The present study aimed to identify the physical demands of Brazilian Air Force (BAF) critical Combat Tasks (CTs) and investigate the occurrence of differences in their difficulty perceived ratings, considering aspects such as sex, military experience, and academic degree of the evaluators.
Methods: The Subject Matter Expert (SME) cohort was assembled based on the BAF's Physical Training Specialists (n = 13, military, at least 2 years of experience). Based on the BAF's previous studies, a questionnaire defining and rating the physical demands of 12 BAF critical CTs was developed.

While the pandemic is behind us, the world community faces a global threat of bacterial resistance outbreak. One of the key ways to combat the spread of multi-resistant bacteria is infection prevention and control tactics using modern antiseptic and disinfectant compositions. Herein, we continue the path to unravel the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of potent pyridine-derived biocide class bis-quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs).
