Pesticide formulations based on Pickering emulsions
Solid
particles often stabilise emulsions better than surfactants, which
results in a longer storage time. Since the turn of the millennium,
interest in these, often sustainable, stabilisers has increased
significantly. Adjuvants & Formulations explored research and development trends in agrochemistry and beyond.

Rhizosphere microorganisms affect root uptake
Rhizosphere
microorganisms increase the root uptake of insecticides in maize
seedlings. However, their effects on the plant’s growth and
translocation depend on the nature of these microorganisms. Adjuvants & Formulations summarizes briefly the results of this Chinese study.
More news in this issue:
- Emulsification mechanism of surfactants in different oil phases
- Effect
of glufosinate rate and addition of ammonium sulphate on annual weed
control in glyphosate/glufosinate/2,4-D-resistant soybean
- Potential of bio-sourced amphiphilic xanthan as an emulsifier in O/W dispersions
- Review about mitigating the effects of poor water quality on herbicide performance
- An oral dsRNA delivery system based on chitosan for the control of Apolygus lucorum
- Ester-based surfactants: Are they stable enough?

Patents in brief
UPL
has applied for a patent on seed treatment products that derive the
correct viscosity and particle size from a lignosulphonate salt and an
acrylic copolymer and/or a polyalkylene glycol ether.
