  • Publication number: 20190116786
    Abstract: Disclosed are granular formulations of herbicides that provide a means to apply non-selective herbicides to field and paddy crops and turf. Granules can be formulated with sub-particles to allow differential release of one or other active ingredient. Granules or sub-particles allow for controlled release of active ingedient such that while up to 30% of the active ingredient is available within 24 h, the remainder requires 3 to 40 days to become available. Sub-particles may also be used as conventional sprays to reduce uptake by leaves of desirable crops.

  • Publication number: 20170313661
    Abstract: A method of treating cancer in which a compound that inhibits the expression, production or release of IL-10 by immune cells is combined with a compound that stimulates the production of IL-12 when given in combination with, or in the presence of TNFa. Said method is effective when provided in addition to standard therapies, notably chemotherapy using cytotoxic drugs and other forms of immune therapy including therapeutic vaccines.
