| Mosquito identification using infrared spectroscopy and chemometrics |
2018 |
1495 |
Mosquito control interventions are more effective when informed by routine entomologic surveillance. Thus, accurate and rapid species identification remains a critical component of operational mosquito control. Current methods to identify adult mosqu... |
| Development of microfluidic paper based analytical devices (µPADS) for the detection of calcium and magnesium ions |
2018 |
3571 |
Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (µPADs) have been developed using several patterning technologies to reproducibly create inexpensive lab-on-chip type analytical tools. Consequently, these devices are useful for field deployable measuremen... |
| Mosquito chronological age determination using mid-infrared spectroscopy and chemometrics |
2020 |
533 |
Determining a mosquito population’s species composition and age is crucial for estimating the risk of pathogen transmission. At present, age-grading methods are chiefly physiologic and classify the mosquitoes in terms of parity (e.g., nulliparous or ... |
| A comparison of a tannic acid biopesticide and a commercial fungicide used for crop protection against Fusarium head blight |
2016 |
3361 |
Fungicides are typically used on crops to prevent pathogenic diseases. However, there are biopesticides that can inhibit the same pathogens as several fungicides. In particular, tannic acid can inhibit the growth of Fusarium graminearum, a fungus tha... |
| Wild caught mosquito species identification using IR spectroscopy and chemometrics |
2021 |
226 |
At its current state, mosquito control is all but reliant on the work of the entomologist. The entomologist and other mosquito control personnel are society’s first line of defense against harmful vector-borne diseases that have caused mosquitoes to ... |
| An exploration of chemometric regression techniques to analyze infrared spectra of aqueous sugar mixtures |
2019 |
520 |
Infrared spectroscopy (IR) is a valuable tool for both qualitative and quantitative studies in chemistry. This is due to its high sensitivity, robustness, short measurement time, and ease of use. However, IR has several disadvantages when it comes to... |
| Development of a formaldehyde analysis method for use with portable spectrometers |
2020 |
1655 |
Formaldehyde testing in poor communities can be limited by the capital costs of laboratory grade instruments. Not having access to these instruments could result in the water supply not being tested, which can lead to health issues.The development of... |
