4/24/2016 - As the majority of Americans long for genetically modified foods to be labeled, some scientists must wonder if that label would need to include a skull and crossbones for GM foods sprayed with glyphosate. New science reveals that the vast majority of genetically modified crops (spr...
This issue, which was first reported in the Sri Lankan media in January 2018 (S72), was about the rejection of several shipments of Sri Lankan tea by Japanese authorities for exceeding the permitted Maximum Residue Levels of the herbicide MCPA, on which Sri Lankan tea planters had purportedly ...
Orgovan, N.et al. Dependence of cancer cell adhesion kinetics on integrin ligand surface density measured by a high-throughput label-free resonant waveguide grating biosensor.
wheat (Triticum aestivum).MethodsGlyphosate was applied to a sandy soil at 0, 0.33, 1, 3, 9 and 27 times a recommended label rate (LR) to establish soil glyphosate concentrations of 0, 0.1, 0.4, 1, 4.7 and 14.8mgkg(-1) in topsoil (0-100mm) after a 28 d plant-free incubation. ...
Field studies were conducted in 2015 and 2016 at Western Kansas Agricultural Research Center - Hays, Kansas, United States. To minimize the effect of herbicide residue, experimental plots were set in different fields next to each other in 2015 and 2016. The GPS coordinates of the field in 2015...
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was busy doubling (and in some cases quadrupling) the amount of allowable glyphosate residue on certain foods, the nation of El Salvador actually heeded the grim data surrounding the herbicide's disastrous effect on our environment and everything in it and ...
glyphosate ban;herbicide resistance;integrated weed management;maximum residue level;social license 1. Introduction Glyphosate, a non-selective herbicide with a unique site of action (SOA), was introduced in 1974 by Monsanto (Roundup™) for use in agriculture and for industrial or ruderal (non-cr...
Multiple missense mutations, which result in substitution of the proline residue at codon 106 of the target enzyme EPSPS, have been identified in glyphosate-resistant individuals of various weed species, including L. multiflorum and L. rigidum [13,14,15,16]. The NTSR mechanisms include reduced...
Roundup may also remain as a residue on edible crops. Many studies have found harm to the environment and to health, making it imperative to regulate the use of Roundup and to ensure that its various formulations pose no danger when used in the long-term. Unfortunately, regulators may only ...
