“…In a parallel study, we show that the recommended field concentration of the neem oil Bioneem was unable to kill the generalist predatory mite Proprioseiopsis neotropicus (Acari: Phytoseiidae), indicating that this biopesticide is selective to this natural enemy. Several other studies point to a relatively selectivity of neem-derived pesticides towards predatory mites (Cote et al, 2002;Venzon et al, 2005;Khater, 2012).…”

“…Although azadirachtin is the most biologically active compound, neem seed extract also contains deacetylnimbin, deacetylsalannin, nimbin, and salanin (Stark and Walter, 1995;Caboni et al, 2006). In addition to being toxic to pests, these active chemical neem compounds have also been emphasized by their low toxicity to mammals, short field persistence and relative selectivity to natural enemies (Caboni et al, 2006;Isman, 2006;Khater, 2012).…”

“…One of the shortcomings of botanical pesticides is their quick degradation which shortens their effectiveness in the field. Perhaps this problem will soon be overcome through recent technological advances such as nanotechnology that will allow future use of botanicals in conventional/commercial crop production systems (Khater, 2012). For example, botanical insecticides can be deployed through nanoencapsulation, which is a process through which a chemical is slowly but efficiently released to affect high insect control (Bhattacharyya et al, 2010).…”

“…It occurs naturally in the seeds, stems, leaves and the roots of plants in fabaceae family. It was the first described member of the family of chemical compounds known as rotenoids [51]. The LD 50 of rotenone (Figure 1) for rats is 132 -1500 mg/kg [6] [7].…”

“…However, rotenone is less toxic to mammals and birds since the route of ingestion is through the digestive tract whereby the compound is easily broken down to less toxic compounds before toxic quantities can enter the bloodstream [6] [7] [50] [51]. Rotenone is rapidly broken down by sunlight which is both an advantage and disadvantage [50].…”
