Journal ArticleDOI

Nanotechnology in Agriculture: Which Innovation Potential Does It Have?

TL;DR: In this article, the authors select and report on recent trends in nanomaterial-based systems and nanodevices that could provide benefits on the food supply chain specifically on sustainable intensification, and management of soil and waste.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chitosan/tripolyphosphate nanoparticles loaded with paraquat herbicide: An environmentally safer alternative for weed control

TL;DR: It was concluded that the encapsulation of paraquat in nanoparticles can provide a useful means of reducing adverse impacts on human health and the environment, and that the formulation therefore has potential for use in agriculture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Engineered nanoparticles and organic matter: A review of the state-of-the-art

TL;DR: This review presents the findings of studies of the interaction of ENPs and NOM, and the possible effects on nanoparticle stability and the toxicity of these materials in the environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Paraquat-loaded alginate/chitosan nanoparticles: preparation, characterization and soil sorption studies.

TL;DR: The results presented in this work show that association of paraquat with alginate/chitosan nanoparticles alters the release profile of the herbicide, as well as its interaction with the soil, indicating that this system could be an effective means of reducing negative impacts caused by paraquats.
