Cellulose Nanocrystals Loaded with Thiamethoxam: Fabrication, Characterization, and Evaluation of Insecticidal Activity against <i>Phenacoccus solenopsis</i> Tinsley (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae)

Cellulose Nanocrystals Loaded with Thiamethoxam: Fabrication, Characterization, and Evaluation of Insecticidal Activity against <i>Phenacoccus solenopsis</i> Tinsley (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae)

Using smart nanopesticide formulations based on nanomaterials can offer promising potential applications for decreasing pesticide residues and their effects on human health and the environment. In this study, a novel nanoformulation (NF) of thiamethoxam (TMX) was fabricated using the solvent evapora...
