Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for the on-line analysis of liquid substance mixtures by means of NIRS. For evaluation by spectral data comparison, merely the binary mixtures of the possible components in quantitative graduations are used as calibration spectra. In order to accelerate the evaluation, all data points of a spectrum are summated, and each spectrum is characterized by only one characteristic number.

Abstract: A device for the transcuticular administration of active substances to plants, and a method of using the same to treat plants with fungicidal, herbicidal, insecticidal and/or acaricidal substances.

Abstract: The invention provides new solvent concentrates of the fungicidally active substance triforine (N,N'-bis[1-formamido-2,2,2-trichloroethyl]-piperazine) characterized by good solubility and good stability to cold and heat.

Abstract: The invention provides a pesticidal composition comprising, as active ingredient, dimethoate together with at least one inert carrier therefor, characterized in that the composition contains, as stabilizer, a cyclopropene fatty acid or an oil containing at least 1% w of a cyclopropene fatty acid.

Abstract: Insecticidal compositions consisting of a carrier material and having at least one insecticidal substance deposited thereon, where the carrier material includes zones free from insecticidal substance and zones containing insecticidal substance, the division into said zones being produced by printing methods.

Abstract: Closure caps for binary packaging systems comprising an active ingredient concentrate component and a dilutent component, which allow the user to admix the two components without coming in contact with either of them or with the resulting mixture.

Abstract: A re-usable mixing and spraying device in which the fill opening and the hand pump used to discharge the spray solution are arranged at different heights, and a concentrate and a diluent may be mixed together in the device which is tightly sealed off from the outside, the concentrate being enclosed in a sealing cap which can be ruptured by the device, so that the reservoir enclosing the concentrate is closed when the sealing cap and fill opening are loosely connected and opened toward the diluent when the sealing cap and fill opening are tightly connected.

Abstract: This invention relates to fungicidal compositions comprising triforine and carbendazim as active ingredients, wherein the composition comprises carbendazim suspended in a solution of a triforine in dimethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, or a mixture thereof and contains a stabilizer selected from the group consisting of saccharides, polyethylene glycol, polyvinylpyrrolidone/polyvinylacetate mixtures, and mixtures thereof.
