Abstract South America is a pivotal supplier of agricultural commodities for growing world population. This large‐scale production generates substantial amount lignocellulosic residue. Inadequate disposal this material can lead to putrefaction and leaching, attract insects rodents. Solid residues be treated by incineration or composting – both causing greenhouse gas emissions. Biotransformation into valuable products has been proposed as more sophisticated alternative burning. However,...
Gibberellic acid (GA 3 ) is an important phytohormone, a member of gibberellins family, which acts as promoter and regulator plant growth. This study aimed to evaluate GA production by Fusarium moniliforme LPB03 Gibberella fujikuroi LPB06 using different techniques fermentation, solid state fermentation (SSF), submerged (SmF), semisolid (SSSF), types bioreactors. In all techniques, citric pulp (CP), subproduct obtained from the extraction orange juice, was employed substrate/support. SSF...
Essential oils and their derivatives are eco-friendly biopesticides that can contribute to reducing the use of synthetic pesticides in agricultural pest control, offering advantages including less harm humans environment. This work concerns hydrogel-based repellent systems containing botanical compounds were emulsified or encapsulated zein nanoparticles. The hydrogels prepared according a two-step process involving molding cross-linking. They presented good rheological properties, even at...
The encapsulation of pesticides in systems responsive to enzymes allow for greater selectivity and specificity pest control, addition contributing reducing the impact on nontarget organisms environment. Therefore, objective this study was investigate synthesis zein nanoparticles loaded with a mixture botanical insecticides release triggered by proteolytic found midguts insects larvae. carried out using antisolvent precipitation method. Nanoformulations were characterized according size, zeta...
