Abstract:
The present invention relates to compositions consisting of: (a) at least one ethylene-releasing compound, and (b) at least one fatty acid ester, alone or in combination with one or more excipients, vehicles or additives, and/or (c) one or more noxious agents. The invention also relates to the use of said composition and to methods for controlling parasitic plants and/or hemiparasitic plants that cause infestations in certain trees. The composition of the invention is characterized in that it exhibits a high degree of adhesion to the parasitic and/or hemiparasitic plant is selective and acropetal, and hast excellent stability and water-impermeability, allowing the prolonged and constant release of ethylene.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing particles with pore structures, by means of a hybrid process of atomization via drying-cooling, from a water-in-oil-type emulsion of a composition of a non-solubilized and in melt state matrix. The production method comprises: i) forming a water-in-oil-type emulsion consisting of a composition of a solvent that is aqueous or soluble in water (dispersed phase) and a composition of a non-solubilized and in melt state matrix (continuous phase); ii) forming discrete particles from the emulsion via atomization, using a flow of gas at high pressure and temperature; iii) immediately removing the solvent via evaporation; and iv) subsequently cooling the formed discrete particles, resulting in porous particles that are substantially free from solvents.

Abstract:
Provided herein are methods of preventing/controlling phytoparasitic nematodes in migratory and sedentary endoparasites belonging to families Anguinidae, Aphelenchidae, Aphelenchoididae, Criconematidae, Dolichodoridae, Hemicycliophoridae, Heteroderidae, Hoplolaimidae, Iotonchidae, Neotylenchidae, Pratylenchidae, Sphaerulariidae, Tilenchidae, and Tylenchulidae: Suborder Tylenchina; Longidoridae: Suborder Dorylaimina; Trichodoridae: Suborder Diphtherophorina using Paecilomyces carneus. The compositions and processes disclosed herein are useful in the prevention and/or control and/or eradication of phytoparasitic nematodes that infect and/or infest the vast majority of cultures for animal and human consumption, while optimum conditions are created in the soil for improving crop yield, with the option of getting organic products.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to fertilizer particles encapsulated in modified chitosan and a method of obtaining them. The particles described in this invention allow a controlled, moderate, or gradual release of an active material from a reserve substrate to another medium, in order to increase the effectiveness of the active material by prolonging its action over time. This invention is characterized in that the active components of said formulations are capable of causing a synergistic effect, considerably increasing the growth and development of plants.
