Environmental Safety Assessments of Lipid Nanoparticles Loaded with Lambda-Cyhalothrin

Abstract: Lipid nanoparticles (LN) composed of biodegradable lipids and produced by green methods are candidates for the encapsulation of pesticides, potentially contributing to decreasing their release in the environment. From a safety-by-design concept, this work proposes LN for the encapsulation of insecticide active ingredients (AI). However, given the complexity of nanoparticles, ecotoxicological studies are often controversial, and a detailed investigation of their effects on the environment is required. According… Show more

“…SLNs have several advantages compared with other polymeric nanoencapsulation techniques; i.e., they reduce losses through leaching, volatilization, and degradation [20]. This study formulated SLNs with glyceryl tristearate as a solid lipid due to its high biocompatibility and lower toxicity [26,27].…”

“…Particularly, solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) (Size: 50 to 1000 nm) contain a lipid core (0.1-30% and solid at room temperature) and surfactant (0.5-5%), which is adequate for the inclusion of hydrophobic compounds [18]. SLNs are systems that allow the sustainable release of hydrophobic compounds and the reduction of compound losses associated with the leaching and degradation produced by environmental factors [19,20]. Recently, SLNs have been widely applied in food science and technology due to their remarkable stability, showing their efficacy for developing new agricultural products due to competitive cost and easy manufacture [20].…”
