Wrap and plant
An innovative nematicide delivery project has won a $1 million grant from the Bill &
Melinda Gates Foundation’s Grand Challenges Explorations initiative.
The grant will allow the inventors to further study and develop a simple
technique they call “wrap and plant”.
Adjuvants & Formulations reports about this innovative delivery system.

Patents in brief
A
team of Chinese inventors has composed adjuvant compositions to improve
the stability of suspension concentrate formulations that are stored
for a long period above room temperature. Using two different polymeric
dispersing agents, these inventors also manage to improve the storage
stability of pymetrozine suspension concentrate formulations. In this
issue also news about two different teams of inventors that both have
applied for a patent protecting ethoxylated phospholipid-enriched soybean oil as adjuvant in pesticide formulations. Adjuvants & Formulations further reports about solvents from vegetable origin, about new solvents for nitrification and/or urease inhibitors and about a new glufosinate formulation.
