Industry:Biology; Chemistry
Modification of the functioning of the immune system by the action of a substance that increases or reduces the ability to produce antibodies.
Industry:Biology; Chemistry
Nationally authorized safe uses of pesticides under actual conditions necessary for effective and reliable pest control.
