HOUSTON, Feb. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Commodity Classic -- Meristem Crop Performance today announced the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has approved a new formulation of METALAXYL ST fungicide for use in their patented BIO-CAPSULE TECHNOLOGY™ complete seed-fluency delivery system. The company will now pair METALAXYL ST with its new biocontrol PREPHYTE ST** to bring multiple modes of action and more effective seed protection to soybeans, eliminating the need for liquids and seed treaters.

Key Points:

Eviston also explained that polymers and colorants used in traditional liquid seed treatments actually decrease the efficacy of the materials applied, something use of the BIO-CAPSULE system avoids entirely.
"Independent, third-party research has documented that the BIO-CAPSULE puts 10-times the live microbes and other active ingredients on the seed when compared with conventional seed treatment or what can be applied through liquid on the planter.
This could make liquid seed treatment obsolete."
"There's been no significant innovation in seed treatment or seed protection for 30 years," he said.

For Poland, South Korea is a preferred Asian investor and a partner delivering sought-after technologies (including in such areas as nuclear energy and defence).

Key Points:

For Poland, South Korea is a preferred Asian investor and a partner delivering sought-after technologies (including in such areas as nuclear energy and defence).
In turn, for South Korea, Poland is a "window" into the European Union and an optimal location for European investments in its own factories.
Most of this business cooperation is South Korean imports to Poland—the balance of trade runs 9 to 1 in favour of South Korea.
Outlook, similar political experiences, openness to new technologies, and simple human kindness, conscientiousness and attention to detail make South Korea and Poland ideal partners for each other in the business world."

Organic integrated circuits, constructed with small molecules or polymers, show great potential for human-friendly interactive mobile applications.

Key Points:

Organic integrated circuits, constructed with small molecules or polymers, show great potential for human-friendly interactive mobile applications.
However, traditional organic circuits are incompatible with modern lithographic techniques and thus suffer from low integration density and poor data-processing capability.
The organic quaternary logic inverter circuit was constructed by connecting an AAT, comprising two "n"-type organic semiconductors and a "p"-type organic semiconductor, to a double-layered "n"-type transistor in series.
The proposed circuit thus advances the capabilities of organic circuits for more demanding computing applications.
