occupational sensitivity to alphitobius diaperinus (panzer) (lesser mealworm).	alphitobius diaperinus is an important beetle in the grain and poultry industries. we evaluated three individuals with work-related symptoms of asthma, rhinitis, conjunctivitis, urticaria, and angioedema on exposure to the insect. prick skin tests with extracts prepared from the larval, pupal, and adult life stages were positive in all three patients. specific ige antibodies to these extracts were demonstrated by rast or radioimmunoassay. rast and radioimmunoassay inhibition confirmed the specif ...	1988	2462582
efficacies of mixtures of disinfectants and insecticides.	efficacies of mixtures of diluted commercial formulations of selected insecticides and disinfectants were evaluated. insecticides tested included representative pyrethroids (fenvalerate [ectrin wdl and wd] and permethrin [ectiban ec]), organophosphates (dichlorvos [vapona ec], tetrachlorvinphos [rabon wp] and dichlorvos/tetrachlorvinphos [ravap ec], and a carbamate (carbaryl [sevin s]). disinfectants tested included representatives of cresylic acid (biolene), cresylic acid/phenol (bioguard x-185 ...	1987	3112756
field trials of steinernema feltiae (nematoda: steinernematidae) for control of alphitobius diaperinus (coleoptera: tenebrionidae)in commercial broiler and turkey houses.		1987	3571698
evaluations of sampling methods for darkling beetles (alphitobius diaperinus) in the litter of turkey and broiler houses.	materials placed on the litter in turkey and broiler houses were evaluated as sampling devices for the larvae and adults of alphitobius diaperinus (lesser mealworm or darkling beetle). insects harbored in, on, and between pieces of the materials were counted after 1-week exposure. pan traps consisting of two stacked pieces of 1.3-cm thick foil-covered polyisocyanurate insulation (celotex) placed under a protective metal pan staked to the litter surface was a more effective sampling device than p ...	1984	6531324
