Abstract: A method for determining a deposit property of a variable deposit on an end face of a first microwave antenna of an assembly for determining a property of a multiphase medium that is to be conveyed, wherein the first microwave antenna is arranged in a first receptacle of the measuring pipe in a medium-contacting manner, wherein the method comprises emitting an excitation signal by means of the first microwave antenna, wherein the excitation signal comprises a sequence of high-frequency signals; receiving a reflected excitation signal by means of the first microwave antenna; determining a first test quantity on the basis of the reflected excitation signal; and determining on the basis of the first test quantity the deposit property of the variable deposit, in particular a variable dependent on a deposit thickness of the variable deposit.

Abstract: Insecticidally and acaricidally active novel substituted furazanes of the formula ##STR1## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 each independently is hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, halogenoalkyl, halogenoalkoxy, halogenoalkylthio or optionally substituted aryloxy, orR.sup.1 and R.sup.2 together are an optionally substituted alkylene radical which is interrupted by 1 or 2 oxygen atoms,R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 each independently is hydrogen, alkyl, alkoxy, halogenoalkyl or halogenoalkoxy, andX is oxygen or sulphur.

Abstract: Annonin, a substantially pure insecticidally active compound obtained by extracting comminuted Annona squamosa parts to remove the petroleum ether solubles, then optionally extracting with alcohol to dissolve the desired material, then extracting either the petroleum ether-residue or the alcohol extract with an aliphatic halogenohydrocarbon, an aliphatic ether and/or an ester, and discarding the residue, and evaporating off the solvent. It has the 1R spectrum shown in the drawing.
