Calcium carbonate nanoparticles can enhance plant nutrition and insect pest tolerance
Nanoparticles and nanotechnology have been applied in agriculture, including for plant nutrition improvement, and pest control. Little research has been conducted on nano-calcium carbonate in plant protection and nutrition. In this study, we compared the effects of nano-calcium carbonate and colloidal calcium carbonate and found that nano-calcium carbonate treatments were better at increasing c...
متن کاملIncreasing ascorbate levels in crops to enhance human nutrition and plant abiotic stress tolerance.
Ascorbate (or vitamin C) is an essential human micronutrient predominantly obtained from plants. In addition to preventing scurvy, it is now known to have broader roles in human health, for example as a cofactor for enzymes involved in epigenetic programming and as regulator of cellular iron uptake. Furthermore, ascorbate is the major antioxidant in plants and underpins many environmentally ind...
متن کاملPreparation and characterization of ultra- hydrophobic calcium carbonate nanoparticles
Anionic surfactants based on fatty acids are usually used to modify the particle surface properties of CaCO 3 with the aim to enhance its dispersion and compatibility with polymer matrices. In this study sodium oleate was used for the preparation of ultrahydrophobic CaCO 3 nanoparticles using a wet carbonation route. The effect of sodium oleate on the characteristics, particle size, morphology,...

متن کاملInsect Pest Control
In October 2004 the Joint FAO/IAEA Division of Nuclear Techniques in Food and Agriculture celebrated 40 years of existence. The creation in October 1964 of this Division, which includes the Insect Pest Control Subprogramme, marked the beginning of what is certainly a unique and arguably the best example of inter-agency cooperation within the whole UN family. The goal was to join the talents and...
