Application of photopharmacology in agrochemicals
Advanced Agrochem, 2023 Photopharmacology is a novel technology in drug design that aims at solving poor drug selectivity. This technology is currently in the proof-of-concept phase and relies on the photoactivation or inactivation of photochromic ligands (PCLs) to regulate biological functions and living organisms.

Advances in surfactants for agrochemicals
Environmental Chemistry Letters, 2013 Pesticide efficacy is improved by surfactants. Increase in the foliar uptake is particularly useful for herbicides, growth regulators and defoliants, because less active compounds are needed, thus decreasing cost and pollution. Therefore, the choice of the adjuvant in an agrochemical formulation is crucial.

, 2006 A general increase in the use of chemicals in agriculture has brought about a concomitant increase in the incidence of agrochemical poisoning. Organophosphates are the most common agrochemical poisons followed closely by herbicides. Many agricultural poisons, such as parathion and paraquat are now mixed with a coloring agent such as indigocarmine to ...
