We
propose cocrystallization to extend the use of natural products
for environmental and agricultural purposes. We show that it is possible
to design cocrystals based on essential oil constituents to adapt
the release profile of the oils to different environmental conditions.
The advantages of using cocrystals compared to pure oils in terms
of antibacterial and antifungal properties are analyzed and discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
