An amphiphilic carboxymethyl chitosan‐based nanopesticide delivery system with enhanced foliar deposition for improved insect‐repellent and antibacterial efficacy
This research demonstrates improved insect-repellent and antibacterial effectiveness in vegetables using a novel nanopesticide formulation.
Key Points
Eug@C-A x -T y enhanced foliar deposition and antifeedant activity against Spodoptera litura in vegetables, providing better pest control.
Droplet impact dynamics showed that the amphiphilic nanopesticide carrier mitigated rebound during impacts, improving application efficacy.
The formulation exhibited significant antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus while minimizing phytotoxicity and promoting seed germination.
