Encapsulated essential oil-based nanoemulsion beads: a green innovation for storage pest control against Tribolium castaneum
Abstract
, also proving the formulated NEs beads with sodium alginate doesn't infer in the any toxic effect against the insects. In conclusion, the study depicts that the development of nanoemulsion beads of the essential oils improved their stability compared with nanoemulsions. Moreover, essential oils enhanced the efficacy of the beads, paving the way for reduced use of harmful synthetic insecticides and pesticides against the stored grain pests.
