Abstract: The present invention relates to new, oil-based suspension concentrates of agrochemical active compounds, a process for the preparation of these formulations and their use for the application of the active compounds contained.

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: Compounds of the formula (I) wherein the substituents are as defined in claim 1, useful as pesticides, and especially fungicides.

Abstract: A composition that is self-foaming in an acid medium, and includes: at least one hydrophilic polymer, at least one compound capable of crosslinking the hydrophilic polymer by forming ionic bonds, at least one foaming agent, and at least one foam stabilizer agent; and to the use thereof as a drug, particularly for preventing and/or treating obesity.

Abstract: The present invention provides: a resin composition which includes a polyethylene resin, and 5-chloro-4-ethyl-6-[2-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)ethylamino]pyrimidine; an insect pest control material obtained by causing the 5-chloro-4-ethyl-6-[2-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)ethylamino]pyrimidine to be held on the polyethylene resin; and a pest control method provided with a step in which the insect pest control material is placed in the habitat of a pest.

Abstract: The present invention provides a substituted pyridine compound of the formula I or an agriculturally suitable salt or N-oxide thereof, wherein the variables in the formula I are defined as in the description. Substituted pyridine compounds of formula I are useful as herbicides.

Abstract: The present invention relates to sulfonamide derivatives of formula (I) where the substituents R1-R6 and R8, L, A and n are as defined in the application, to plant growth regulator compositions comprising them and to methods of using them for controlling the growth of plants, improving plant tolerance to abiotic stress (including environmental and chemical stresses), inhibiting seed germination and/or safening a plant against phytotoxic effects of chemicals.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a transdermal device including porous microparticles capable of containing an active principle, in particular nicotine, and to the use thereof as a drug, in particular for tobacco cessation. The present invention further relates to a method for preparing a transdermal device including porous microparticles filled with an active principle.

Abstract: Process for the preparation of a water-in-oil or oil-in-water nanoemulsion wherein the dispersed phase is distributed in the dispersing phase in the form of droplets having a diameter ranging from 1 to 500 nm, comprising: 1) the preparation of a homogeneous water/oil blend (I) characterized by an interface tension lower than 1 mN/m, comprising water in an amount of 30 to 70% by weight, at least two surface-active agents having a different HLB, selected from non-ionic, anionic, polymeric surface-active agents, said surface-active agents being present in such a quantity as to make the blend homogeneous; 2) the dilution of the blend (I) in a dispersing phase consisting of oil or water with the addition of a surface-active agent, selected from non-ionic, anionic, polymeric surface-active agents, the quantity of the dispersing phase and surface-active agent being such as to obtain a nanoemulsion having a HLB different from that of the blend (I).
