“…To date, the most commonly used strategy to combat these problems is the use of conventional pesticides, most of which are synthetic, including insecticides [ 33 , 34 , 35 ]. The intensified use of artificial pesticides leads to harmful effects on the environment, including the decrease in biodiversity and the rise in factors potentially hazardous for human health [ 36 , 37 ]. Thus, less harmful strategies, for instance, the use of pesticides from natural origins, must be taken into consideration.…”

Eugenol is a phenolic aromatic compound obtained mainly from clove oil. Due to its known antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, anticancer, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, it has long been used in various areas, such as cosmetology, medicine, and pharmacology. However, high concentrations can be toxic. A dose of 2.5 mg/kg body weight is regarded as safe. This paper reviews the current state of knowledge regarding the activities and application of eugenol and its derivatives and recent research of these compounds. This review is based on information concerning eugenol characteristics and recent research from articles in PubMed. Eugenol remains of great interest to researchers, since its multidirectional action allows it to be a potential component of drugs and other products with therapeutic potential against a range of diseases.

“…Clearly, these innovative developments evidence that the formulation of botanical EOs at the nanoscale level could represent an appropriate strategy for improving their chemical properties and stability in the field. In this sense, Peres et al 70 also evaluated the repellency effect of Xylopia aromatic EO in free form and in encapsulated PCL systems against B. tabaci adults. An important reduction in the B. tabaci oviposition in leaves of P. vulgaris was shown with the PCL nanoformulation, similar to the effect of free EO.…”

“…The insecticidal action against Bemisia tabaci was studied and both the neat and nanoencapsulated EOs resulted in reductions as high as 95% in the number of eggs and nymph populations. Peres et al70 obtained PCL NPs with EOs of Xylopia aromatica leaves and fruits through the same method. EO-loaded PCL NPs presented an encapsulation efficiency of 95%, with a mean diameter of less than 159 nm and a narrow PDI (< 0.30).…”

The excessive and indiscriminate use of synthetic agrochemicals and toxic fumigants has become essential in the maximization of agricultural production worldwide. Despite their beneficial roles in the field and during storage, they produce environmental pollution, increasing pesticide/herbicide resistance and destruction of beneficial insects, and placing the health of producers and consumers at risk. This scenario has enabled the development of new scientific approaches focused on alternatives and ecofriendly and safer forms of pest management including the use of botanical products such as plant extracts and essential oils (EOs) with insecticidal action. The application of EOs for pest control presents several advantages: low toxicity and low persistence; biodegradability; high selectivity; no harmful effects on people or crops; and low environmental impact during and after use. Unfortunately, EOs are biologically unstable since they are easily degraded under the action of pH, oxygen, light and moderate temperatures. Generally, they present low aqueous solubility and high volatility. In this sense, nanotechnology represents a potential solution: the loading of EOs in nanostructured systems. The use of biopolymers as nanocarriers not only provides the controlled release of the active ingredient, but also offers the following benefits: biodegradability, biocompatibility, environmental safety, low toxicity and competitive production costs. This review aims at describing the most recent preparation techniques and characterization based on EO-loaded bio-nanomaterials. Also, this review highlights studies of novel bio-nanoformulations and their potential roles in agricultural practices to promote sustainable and ecofriendly cultivation. Finally, we summarize the commercial challenges and limitations related to these promising bio-nanoformulations.

“…This is an attractive property for long-term applications in bioactive agent delivery [ 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 ]. There are reports from Peres et al in which they propose the encapsulation of essential oil of fruit and leaves of Xylopia aromatica in PCL nanoparticles [ 21 ]. The nanoencapsulation of these bioactive compounds promotes their protection from environmental degradation and prolongs their biological activity.…”

Zuccagnia punctata Cav. Essential Oil into Poly(ε-caprolactone) Matrices as a Sustainable and Environmentally Friendly Strategy Biorepellent against Triatoma infestans (Klug) (Hemiptera, Reduviidae)

et al. 2021

The main strategies against Triatoma infestans (primary vector responsible for the Chagas disease transmission) are the elimination or reduction of its abundance in homes through the application of insecticides or repellents with residual power, and environmental management through the improvement of housing. The use of plant-derived compounds as a source of therapeutic agents (i.e., essential oils from aromatic plants and their components) is a valuable alternative to conventional insecticides and repellents. Essential oil-based insect repellents are environmentally friendly and provide reliable personal protection against the bites of mosquitoes and other blood-sucking insects. This study investigates, for the first time to our knowledge, the potential repellent activity of Zuccagnia punctata essential oil (ZEO) and poly(ε-caprolactone) matrices loaded with ZEO (ZEOP) prepared by solvent casting. The analysis of its essential oil from aerial parts by GC–FID and GC-MS, MS allowed the identification of 25 constituents representing 99.5% of the composition. The main components of the oil were identified as (−)-5,6-dehydrocamphor (62.4%), alpha-pinene (9.1%), thuja-2, 4 (10)-diene (4.6%) and dihydroeugenol (4.5%). ZEOP matrices were homogeneous and opaque, with thickness of 800 ± 140 µm and encapsulation efficiency values above 98%. ZEO and ZEOP at the lowest dose (0.5% wt./wt., 96 h) showed a repellency of 33 and 73% respectively, while at the highest dose (1% wt./wt., 96 h) exhibited a repellent activity of 40 and 66 %, respectively. On the other hand, until 72 h, ZEO showed a strong repellent activity against T. infestans (88% repellency average; Class V) to both concentrations, compared with positive control N-N diethyl-3-methylbenzamide (DEET). The essential oils from the Andean flora have shown an excellent repellent activity, highlighting the repellent activity of Zuccagnia punctata. The effectiveness of ZEO was extended by its incorporation in polymeric systems and could have a potential home or peridomiciliary use, which might help prevent, or at least reduce, Chagas’ disease transmission.
