Preparation, Characterization, and Control Efficacy of a Cinnamon Oil-based Nanoemulsion against Phytophthora Cankers in Durian and Avocado: from Lab to Field Trials

Effectiveness of Nanoemulsion Formulated with Citronella and Garlic Essential Oils against Fall Armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) on Maize Plants

Fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda J.E Smith) is a major invasive pest that threatens maize production in Indonesia. This study aimed to evaluate the activity of nanoemulsions of citronella and garlic essential oils, both individually and in combinations at ratios of 1:1, 2:1, and 1:2, against third-instar larvae of...

Nanoemulsion-Based Enhancement of the Antifungal Activity of Clove and Ginger Essential Oils Combination against Fungi Causing Papaya Rot.

Application of a Bioactive Compound 2,4-Di-tert-butylphenol in Nanoemulsion Form for Shelf-Life Extension of Cherry Tomatoes: From Microbial Inactivation to Quality and Safety Evaluation

Postharvest spoilage of cherry tomatoes caused by pathogenic microorganisms and oxidative browning leads to significant economic losses and food waste. Natural bioactive compounds are gaining increasing attention as alternatives to synthetic pesticides. In this study, a nanoemulsion (NED) formulation of nature-derived...

Development and Evaluation of p-Cresol based Nanoemulsion for Pre-emergence Suppression of Cyperus rotundus

Nanoencapsulated essential oil consortium for controlling anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum scovillei in Chili (Capsicum annuum L.)

Anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum spp., is a major constraint in chili production and can result in substantial yield losses. This study aimed to identify the causal pathogen of anthracnose and evaluate a nanoencapsulated botanical pesticide based on an essential oil consortium for controlling the pathogen. The stu...

Management of lesser grain borer, Rhyzopertha dominica through nano bioformulations in stored rice

Nanoencapsulation of botanical insecticides has emerged as a promising strategy to improve the efficacy and stability of plant-derived compounds in stored-product pest management. The present study aimed to develop and evaluate nano silica-encapsulated formulations of neem (Azadirachta indica A. Juss.) oil, acorus (Aco...
