Characterization of Nanospheres Containing Fruit Essential Oil and Their Insecticidal and Deterrent Activities against (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae).

The aim of our study was to produce and characterize poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) nanospheres containing essential oils from fruit and to evaluate their stability gains as well as their insecticidal and deterrent activities against whitefly (). The PCL nanospheres exhibited a homogeneous spherical morphology, with particle diameters between 106.7 nm and 129.
