Advance of Nanotechnology for the Encapsulation of Botanical Insecticides

Bioprocess, 2017
本文主要阐述了利用纳米技术和植物源农药相结合的方式，发展农业害虫防控系统的研究进展。植物源农药因对人类和环境安全，其研发越来越被重视。但是由于植物源农药稳定性较差、易挥发等弊端，限制了其应用和发展。而纳米技术可以有效解决这一问题，纳米技术和植物源农药相结合可以开发出稳定性更高、效果更好、污染更小的新型杀虫剂。 The article mainly discusses the use of nanotechnology in combination with botanical insecticides in order to develop systems for pest control in agriculture.
