Overview

This research demonstrates the preparation of chitosan nanoparticles for pathogen control in agriculture, suggesting a sustainable alternative to traditional pesticides.

Key Points

  • Chitosan nanoparticles significantly enhanced pathogen control, and their antimicrobial effect was linked to their preparation method.
  • Formulated through cross-linking with tannic acid, the chitosan nanoparticles showed promising encapsulation capabilities for agricultural applications.
  • Dynamic and electrophoretic light scattering revealed critical insights into the properties of the nanoparticles and their molar mass.
  • Assessments of particle morphology via atomic force microscopy highlighted the influence of chitosan concentration on particle structure.
