Uptake and translocation properties of rotenone nanopesticide mediated by hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles in cucumber plant

GUO Yajun,SHEN Dianjing,ZHAO Ming,FAN Tianle,WANG Zhichao,CHEN Xiaojun
【Objective】 Nanocarrier was used as pesticide carrier to improve the utilization ratio of pesticide.【Method】 Hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HMSNs) were synthesized by self-template method using water as etchant on the basis of solid mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs). Botanical pesticide rotenone was loaded into HMSNs (Rot@HMSNs) by solvent evaporation method. The sustained-release property and insecticidal activity of Rot@HMSNs were determined. Distribution of rotenone in Rot@HMSNs...
