Basamid (3,5-dimethyl-l,3,5,2H-tetrahydrothiadiazine-2-thione), a crystalline powder first used as a soil sterilant, has shown promise as a wood fumigant. This chemical decomposes to methylisothiocyanate (MITC), the primary active ingredient, as well as other products; but the rate of decomposition in wood is too slow to be effective unless certain catalysts are...
The Amsterdam-St. Paul Plateau is bisected by the intermediate-rate spreading Southeast Indian Ridge, and numerous geophysical and tectonic anomalies arise from the interactions of the Amsterdam-St. Paul hotspot and the spreading center. The plate boundary geometry on the hotspot platform evolves rapidly (on timescales <1 Myr), off-axis volcanism is abundant,...
Basamid^R (3,5-dimethy1-1,3,5,2H-tetrahydrothiadiazine-
2-thione) is a crystalline powder used as a soil sterilant.
This fumigant acts in soil by decomposing to methylisothiocyanate
(MITC), the primary active ingredient, as well as
hydrogen sulfide, methylamine, and formaldehyde. In wood,
Basamid decomposes too slowly to be efficacious against
decay fungi unless amended with various...
Veterinary medicine impacts everyone in the world to some degree and veterinary medicine is taught in some format in every country across the globe. However, veterinary education differs between countries due to the environmental and cultural variations. The purpose of this study was to investigate how veterinarians are trained in...
