Plants and Pesticides

The voracious appetites of pests put plants under constant stress. They have to fight just to stay alive. And fight they do. Far from being passive victims, plants have evolved potent defenses: chemical compounds that serve as toxins, signal an escalating attack, and solicit help from unlikely allies. 1 In some cases plants lure attackers into a carefully set trap. An example: plants in the Brassicaceae family (including broccoli, cabbage and mustard) store seemingly harmless compounds known as glucosinates in cellular compartments next to stores of enzymes called myrosinase. The two reserves are separated only by a thin cell wall. When an unsuspecting herbivore chews through this wall, the myrosinase enzymes mix with the glucosinates, catalyzing chemical reactions that engulf the attacker in a toxic cloud. It’s these reactions that give Brassicaceae species their characteristic bitter flavor and antioxidant properties.

Commentary: Angela Logomasini — Dangerous consequences of junk science

Commentary: Angela Logomasini - Dangerous consequences of junk science Angela Logomasini FacebookTwitterEmail Author Richard Weaver was certainly correct when he asserted that “ideas have consequences” in his 1948 book by the same name. It’s also true that misinformation can have consequences often seriously dangerous ones. Consider the effect of one faulty government study, which unleashed a chain of events that undermined medical supplies during the early part of the COVID-19 crisis and continues to be a problem. Back in 2016, an Environmental Protection Agency program known as the Integrated Risk Information System released a report that made absurd claims about the risk of ethylene oxide. Ethylene oxide is a gas that is naturally produced in the environment by plants and via combustion and is a byproduct of human metabolism. It’s also essential to the sterilization of more than half of all U.S. medical supplies masks, syringes, ventilators and more and there are

Report Points to Reasons for PPE Shortages

WBGZ Radio 12/17/2020 | By Cole Lauterbach - Illinois Radio Network A new report is calling for a second look at federal guidelines that led to Illinois’ restrictions on a sterilant found to cause cancer more than previously thought, saying the facility closures led to COVID-19 PPE shortages. Angela Logomasini, senior fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, contends in a report released Thursday that the push to close medical equipment sterilization facilities like Sterigenics in suburban Willowbrook contributed to runs on critical protective gear that kept first responders and others from contracting COVID-19.  “The faulty IRIS assessment’s contribution to medical supply shortages during the COVID-19 pandemic underscores the need for swift action. Failure to correct the science threatens to undermine essential medical supply sterilization infrastructure,” the report said. “Pressure to close these facilities continues to mount around the nation because of misi
