Abstract: Biocidal coatings include flake shaped particles that are deposed with a vertical orientation to form a coating which is biocidal to pathogens including viruses, bacteria, biofilms, fungi, microbes, algae, and other pathogens. In some embodiments, the pathogen membrane becomes lacerated when contacting the blade shaped flake particle. In other embodiments, a flake shaped particle which is a semiconductor generates radicals, or hydroxyls, or oxidizers, which transit to pathogens, and stress or deactivate the pathogens. In still more embodiments, this generation of radicals, hydroxyls, or oxidizers by the semiconductive flake shaped particle is increased with light irradiation.
Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds of Formula (I), wherein R1, R2, R3, R4 and G are as defined herein. The invention further relates to herbicidal compositions which comprise a compound of Formula (I), to their use for controlling weeds, in particular in crops of useful plants.

Abstract: The invention relates to the technical field of agricultural planting, in particular to a controlled-release bacterial fertilizer for peanuts and a preparation method of the special controlled-release bacterial fertilizer. The special controlled-release bacterial fertilizer is composed of an inner layer and an outer layer; after the outer layer is released completely, the inner-layer network structure gradually absorbs water and preserves moisture, and has good slow release and controlled release properties, thereby achieving the gradual release of the inner layer, high fertilizer utilization rate, exerting the efficacy of the microbial agent and facilitating the large-area promotion.

Abstract: Methods and systems for enhancing production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in living organisms are provided. An example method includes generating structurally altered gas molecules from water. The structurally altered gas molecules have a higher probability of attraction of electrons into areas adjunct to the structurally altered gas molecules than molecules of the water. The method further includes infusing the structurally altered gas molecules into a living organism. Upon being infused, the structurally altered gas molecules cause an increase of production of the ATP in the living organism.
Abstract: Provided are bioactive compositions and metabolites derived from Bacillus and particularly Bacillus megaterium cultures responsible for controlling pests as well as their methods of use for controlling pests. Further provided are pesticidal Bacillus megaterium strains.

Abstract: A formulation is especially suited as one or more of an insecticide, anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungicide as well as one that acts as a fertilizer and/or an enhancement to a fertilizer when the formulation is coated thereon. The formulation can be used to treat plants for pest control and/or fertilization or other areas in that require a viral, fungal, and/or bacterial treatment.
Abstract: A method for producing a biocide from a hypochlorite oxidant and an ammonium salt is provided. The method focuses on preventing and/or reducing the presence of excess ammonium. The molar ratio of ammonium to hypochlorite is less than 1:1. In a preferred embodiment, the method includes monitoring the conductivity of the biocide to optimize the ratio between the hypochlorite oxidant and the ammonium salt. The optimum ratio is that at which the conductivity has a local maximum.
Abstract: 6-oxo-1,4,5,6 tetrahydropyridazine-3-carboxylic acid or its salts or 1-methyl 6-oxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridizin-3-carboxylic acid or its salts, to plants can cause an increase in parameters such as germination, seedling emergence, growth, drought tolerance and recovery, yield, rhizobia induced root nodulation as compared to untreated wild type plants. 1-Methyl 6-oxo-1,4,5,6 tetrahydropyridazine-3-carboxylic acid or its salts is chemically the simplest 1-alkyl 6-oxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridazine-3-carboxylic acid and as such is an example showing the effectiveness of a 1-alkyl 6-oxo-1,4,5,6 tetrahydropyridazine-3-carboxylic acid. Higher series derivatives such as 1-alkyl 6-oxo-1,4,5,6 tetrahydropyridazine-3-carboxylic acids also induce beneficial effects on treated plants.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for controlling arthropods, including insects and arachnids in an environment. The methods generally comprise: generating a near-ideal gas Purified Hydrogen Peroxide Gas (PHPG) that is substantially non-hydrated (e.g., in the form of water in solution or water in solution or water molecules bonded by covalence, van der Waals forces, or London forces) and substantially free of, e.g., ozone, plasma species, and/or organic species; and directing the gas comprising primarily PHPG into the environment such that the PHPG acts to control arachnids in the environment. In certain aspects, the arachnids may be totally or partially killed.
