Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions for pest control, more particularly insecticides, to a process for preparing them, and to the use of such formulations for sustained control of animal pests (arthropods) on various surfaces. The present invention further relates to active ingredient-wax particles in which at least one active insecticidal ingredient is dispersed in wax.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an insecticide-containing fabric containing at least one embedded insecticidally active ingredient in the polymeric matrix and having excellent wash resistance, and also to the products produced from this fabric and to their use for protecting humans, animals and plants against arthropods, particularly for controlling insects.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an insecticide-containing polymeric material containing at least one embedded insecticidally active ingredient in the polymeric matrix and having excellent biological activity, and also to the products produced from this polymer and to their use for protecting humans, animals and plants against arthropods, particularly for controlling insects.

Abstract: The present invention relates to water-based rodenticidal gels which do not cure, remain attractive to harmful rodents for long period, retain their viscosity and adhere permanently to surfaces.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an aqueous suspension of insecticidally active compounds comprising a solid active compound applied as a coating to an inorganic carrier and auxiliaries, water and glycerol.

Abstract: A variety of diazacyanine mediators that are soluble in aqueous media and which do not inhibit enzymatic activity are provided for use on the surface of a working electrode of a electrochemical biosensor for electrochemical co-enzyme regeneration. The co-enzyme, dihydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) or dihydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), is oxidized to NAD.sup.+ OR NADP.sup.+ which is reduced by an oxidoreductase such as a dehydrogenase acting on a substrate. By applying the mediator together with NADH or NADPH to the surface of the working electrode, the voltage necessary to achieve oxidation is substantially reduced. Biosensor electrodes such as graphite electrodes may be produced-by screen printing techniques.

Abstract: There has been found1) a method for reducing the toxicity of spent liquors from dyeing with cationic dyes or mixtures thereof, characterized by the step of dyeing with cationic dyes having a computed electrostatic shielding energy (idealized hydration energy) of .gtoreq.50 kcal/mol,2) cationic, generally low toxicity dyes, their preparation and use for dyeing.

Abstract: The invention relates to the preparation, as substituents, of nucleotides possessing a fluorescent coumarin residue, the enzymic incorporation of these nucleotides into nucleic acids and the detection of nucleic acids of defined sequence by hybridization with a complementary, coumarin-labelled nucleic acid.

Abstract: The present invention relates to polymer dyestuffs, i.e. polymer-bound dyestuffs, to a process for their preparation and to their use, for example as markers in analytical procedures. Polymer dyestuffs contain linkable functional groups and are water-soluble under customary conditions of analysis. The polymer portion is usually responsible for this water solubility. The dyestuffs per se are often water-insoluble.
