Nicotine oleate dispersions as botanical insecticides

2004
Two alternative extraction media for botanical insecticide nicotine were evaluated in order to increase its recovery efficiency from tobacco leaves: oleic acid oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions and oleic acid. The use of oleic acid O/W emulsions stabilized by calcium caseinate as extraction media in a percolation process showed a recovery efficiency between

Botanical Insecticides in the Twenty-First Century—Fulfilling Their Promise?

Annual Review of Entomology, 2020
Academic interest in plant natural products with insecticidal properties has continued to grow in the past 20 years, while commercialization of new botanical insecticides and market expansion of existing botanicals has lagged considerably behind. Insecticides based on pyrethrum and neem (azadirachtin) continue to be standard bearers in this class of ...

Effects of Botanical Insecticides on Hymenopteran Parasitoids: a Meta-analysis Approach

Neotropical Entomology, 2018
Botanical insecticides (BIs) are considered a valuable alternative for plant protection in sustainable agriculture. The use of both BIs and parasitoids are presumed to be mutually compatible pest management practices. However, there is controversy on this subject, as various studies have reported lethal and sublethal effects of BIs on hymenopteran ...
