Controlled release pesticide formulation with long-term efficacy is highly desirable for improving pesticide utilization and reducing adverse effects. In this study, an environment-friendly controlled release formulation of biological insecticide spinosad was fabricated through the coprecipitation-based synchronous encapsulation with chitosan. The resulted spinosad/chitosan formulation showed an excellent encapsulation efficiency of 60 %, obvious pH and temperature sensitivity, and outstanding ultraviolet shielding ability. The in vitro release tests displayed long sustained-release time (>18 d) and high cumulative release (>80 %) under neutral and weakly alkaline conditions. The primary interaction between spinosad and chitosan has been found to be physical adsorption and adhesion, with the release dynamics following Fickian diffusion mechanism of Ritger-Peppas model. This work contributes to the development of pesticide carrier system of natural polymer materials, with a great potential for insect pest control.

Chitosan has emerged as a promising biopolymer carrier for the sustained release of pesticides owing to its good biocompatibility, biodegradability, and bioactivity. In this work, a controlled-release formulation of insecticide chlorantraniliprole was fabricated through coprecipitation-based synchronous encapsulation with chitosan, where the optimum preparation conditions, storage stability, deposition behavior, and application potential were investigated. Preparation of optimization data from response surface methodology showed high correlation coefficient () of 0.

Background: Controlled-release pesticide formulations have emerged as a promising approach towards sustainable pest control. Herein, an environment-friendly formulation of insecticide chlorantraniliprole (CAP) was fabricated through a simple approach of coprecipitation-based synchronous encapsulation by chitosan (CTS), with carrier-pesticide interaction mechanism and release behavior investigated.
Results: The resulting CAP/CTS controlled-release formulation (CCF) showed a good loading content of 28.
