A sensitive and selective gas chromatographic mass spectrometric method, based on derivatization with 9-xanthydrol, has been established for the simultaneous determination of five carbamate pesticides (carbaryl, carbofuran, metolcarb, isoprocarb and ethiofencarb) in surface water. 4-Bromo-3,5-dimethylphenyl-N-methylcarbamate was chosen as the internal standard for analyzing water samples. The derivatization of carbamates was performed directly in water and the reaction conditions (9-xanthydrol of 50.0mM, HCl concentration of 0.05M, reaction for 60min at 60°C) were established through the optimization of various parameters. Under the established conditions, the limits of quantification were in the range of 0.007-0.028μg/L, and the intra- and inter-day relative standard deviation were each less than 15% at concentrations of 0.1, 1.0 and 10μg/L. None of the carbamate pesticides were detected in any of the sixteen surface waters analyzed.

Shortened egg reappearance periods (ERP) have been seen as an early warning of anthelmintic resistance development in cyathostomins in horses. The hypothesis has been that in these instances, efficacy against egg laying adult cyathostomins remains high, but a decline in activity against later larval stages leads to the earlier resumption of egg shedding after treatment. In this study using a single herd of horses we investigated the ERP of a number of commonly used equine anthelmintics and examined whether ERP might show seasonal variation between winter and summer.

This study aimed to identify the presence of gastrointestinal nematode populations resistant to albendazole, levamisole, and ivermectin in six farms located in three regions of Jordan (Irbid, Mafraq, and Ma'an). Infected sheep (40 per farm) with at least 100 eggs per gram were randomly divided into four groups (10 animals per group). Three groups were treated with ivermectin, albendazole, or levamisole while the fourth group was used as a negative control group.

Carbendazim (CBZ) is used to prevent fungal infections in agricultural crops. Given its high persistence and potential for long-term health effects, it is crucial to quickly identify pesticide residues in food and the environment in order to mitigate excessive exposure. Aptamer-based sensors offer a promising solution for pesticide detection due to their exceptional selectivity, design versatility, ease of use, and affordability.

The accurate detection of carbamate pesticides popularly employed in agricultural products is critical for reducing the threat of resultant residues to human health. In this work, a regenerable nanofilm used for SERS substrate was constructed by interfacially confined self-assembly incorporating CdS nanowires (CdSNWs) and Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs). The constructed AgNPs-CdSNWs/Nanofilm could significantly enhance the Raman signals of three carbamate pesticides (metolcarb, carbaryl and aldicarb-sulfone).
