Increasing restrictions on synthetic pesticides due to environmental and health concerns have driven the search for alternative environmentally friendly pest management strategies. Essential oils (EOs) from plants like garlic ( Allium sativum ), clove ( Syzygium aromaticum ), and eucalyptus ( Eucalyptus camaldulensis ) have shown promise as bioinsecticides. However, their volatility, low water solubility, and short persistence...

The ecotoxicological consequences of synthetic pesticides have encouraged stakeholders to search for eco-friendly pest control tools, like essential oils (EOs). Nano-delivery systems (nanoparticles and nano-emulsions) seem ideal for developing EO-based biopesticides, although production processes should be standardized and implemented. In this study, nano-emulsions loaded with a high amount of Allium sativum L. EO (15%) were d...
