Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pesticide technology, and in particular to a phase change eutectic carrier with embedded photothermal agent, its preparation method and application. Background Technology

[0002] Soil-borne diseases are caused by pathogens such as fungi, bacteria, nematodes, and viruses that live in the soil with diseased plant debris and infect crops through the roots or stems when conditions are suitable. Fungi are the most prevalent, such as *Pythium spp.* causing seedling rot and damping-off, *Rhizoctonia solani* causing seedling blight, and *Fusarium oxysporum* and *Verticillium alboatum* causing wilting and death. Soil-borne diseases cause significant economic losses to agricultural production due to their rapid onset and limited control methods. Currently, chemical fungicides remain the primary control strategy for soil-borne diseases, with mainstream fungicides including copper-based fungicides, organosulfur fungicides, triazole fungicides, methoxyacrylate fungicides, and benzimidazole fungicides. However, the aforementioned fungicides are poorly soluble in water and require the addition of various adjuvants and organic solvents, and are processed through special processes to form wettable powders (WP), suspension concentrates (SC), emulsifiable concentrates (EC), etc. The environmental pollution and ecotoxicity caused by chemically synthesized adjuvants (such as surfactants and thickeners) and solvents (such as toluene and xylene) cannot be ignored. Therefore, the development of green and efficient pesticide delivery systems (PDS) has become a research hotspot in the field of pesticide formulation.

[0003] Phase change materials (PCMs) are materials that undergo solid-liquid and liquid-solid phase transitions under external temperature stimuli. Due to their temperature sensitivity, they have been extensively studied in drug delivery. Eutectic melting is a common phenomenon in solid-state systems, referring to a mixture of different substances (usually two or more components) that melts at its lowest melting point at a specific temperature, with all components simultaneously initiating melting at that temperature. Using PCMs as pesticide carriers can achieve functionalities such as pesticide stabilization, temperature-responsive release, and controlled release. Therefore, PCM carriers hold great promise for applications in pesticide "reduction and efficiency enhancement." Summary of the Invention

[0058] Advantages of this invention:

[0059] (1) This invention uses different photothermal agents as temperature-responsive drug release switches. The fungicide is loaded into the photothermal agent and eutectic mixture via adsorption and eutectic loading, and prepared as a phase change eutectic fungicide with embedded photothermal agent in a one-pot process. Eutectic loading improves the loading capacity and dispersibility of the fungicide, achieving temperature-responsive release. Cu-PDA and fatty acids have broad-spectrum antibacterial properties and can synergistically combat soil-borne plant diseases with chemical fungicides, achieving the beneficial effect of "reduced dosage and increased efficiency" in pesticide use.

[0060] (2) The phase change eutectic bactericide with embedded photothermal agent provided by this invention can control the eutectic state of fatty acid and bactericide by simply changing the mass fraction of fatty acid / organic solvent / water. Eutectic melting significantly improves the dispersibility and loading capacity of the bactericide in the carrier; based on the eutectic material's ability to operate above the phase change temperature (T... m When the solid phase transforms into the liquid phase, the system exhibits temperature responsiveness. By changing the temperature, the bactericide can be released in a cascade manner, that is, the bactericide fixed in the eutectic is released first, and the bactericide loaded in the photothermal agent is released later.

[0061] (3) The phase change eutectic bactericide with embedded photothermal agent provided by this invention is solid and has a relatively large size under low temperature and cloudy conditions, which can effectively seal the drug in the carrier and confine it to the soil surface, preventing the loss of active ingredients; under high temperature and sunny conditions, a solid-liquid phase transition occurs to release the bactericide, which is transported downwards to act on the crop roots. At the same time, as the soil layer deepens, the temperature gradually decreases, the carrier undergoes a liquid-solid transition, confining the bactericide to the soil layer around the crop roots, prolonging the action time, improving the bactericide's effect, and preventing it from flowing into groundwater.

[0062] (4) Compared with traditional fungicide formulations (WP, SC), the phase change eutectic fungicide with embedded photothermal agent used in this invention has the advantages of simple preparation process, mild conditions, no need for a large number of adjuvants, quantitative preparation, low energy consumption, low organic solvent content, no loss of active ingredient, and significantly reduced pesticide loss into the environment during use. The phase change eutectic fungicide with embedded photothermal agent can improve the dispersibility and utilization rate of the active ingredient, and is suitable for various application methods such as seed coating and soil treatment. It can play a variety of synergistic functions depending on the application environment, and is a type of green and efficient fungicide carrier. Attached Figure Description

[0075] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this invention easier to understand, the invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0076] Unless otherwise stated, all raw materials and reagents used in the following examples are chemically pure, commercially available, and from no specific manufacturer. Alternatively, they can be prepared using known methods.

[0077] Example 1

[0078] In this embodiment, the photothermal agent is a Cu-PDA nanobottle, and the phase change eutectic carrier eutectic is a mixture of fatty acids, organic solvents, and water.

[0079] according to Figure 1The process flow shown is used to prepare Cu-PDA nanobottles and phase change eutectic bactericides with embedded photothermal agents:

[0080] First, take 0.5 mL of polystyrene microsphere aqueous suspension (2.5%, w / v), wash twice with water, and collect by centrifugation as a reaction template.

[0081] The second step is to disperse the collected PS template in 10 mL of solution containing 1 mg / mL. -1 The dopamine hydrochloride was added to a Tris-HCl buffer (10 mM, pH 8.5), and 3 mg of copper chloride was added. The reaction was carried out at room temperature for 12 hours, and the solid product was collected by centrifugation at 6000 rpm for 5 min. The operation was repeated twice to obtain PS@Cu-PDA core-shell particles.

[0082] In the third step, the obtained PS@Cu-PDA core-shell particles were added to 10 mL of a 1% toluene emulsion containing 1% Tween-20, and then incubated on a shaker at 300 rpm at room temperature for 8 h to allow the PS polystyrene microspheres to swell. After the reaction was complete, 20 mL of anhydrous ethanol was added to quench the swelling, and the solid product was collected by centrifugation at 6000 rpm for 5 min and washed three times with ethanol. The obtained product was then incubated with 10 mL of THF on a shaker at 300 rpm at room temperature for 4 h to dissolve all the PS. After the reaction was complete, the product was washed twice with THF and centrifuged to obtain Cu-PDA nanobottles.

[0083] Fourth step: Azoxystrobin is dissolved in ethyl acetate to form AZOX solutions of different concentrations. Then, the Cu-PDA nanobottle is dispersed in the above solutions, shaken thoroughly, and placed in a vacuum environment for 6 hours to obtain drug-loaded nanobottles.

[0084] In the fifth step, lauric acid was dissolved in ethanol (0.3 mg / mL), and then the above-mentioned drug-loaded nanobottle was dispersed in the lauric acid / ethanol solution. After thorough shaking, deionized water was added to encapsulate the drug-loaded nanobottle and allow the lauric acid, ethanol, and water to co-melt, thus solidifying the free azoxystrobin and obtaining a phase change eutectic fungicide with an embedded photothermal agent loaded with azoxystrobin, hereinafter referred to as ANT. This was used for subsequent experimental verification.

[0085] 1) Example 1: Drug loading experiment in Cu-PDA nanobottles

[0086] First, prepare a 0.1 mg / mL azoxystrobin / methanol solution in a 25 mL volumetric flask. Pipette 5 mL, 2.5 mL, 0.5 mL, 0.25 mL, 0.05 mL, and 0.025 mL into 50 mL volumetric flasks and dilute to volume with methanol. Establish a standard curve for azoxystrobin using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).

[0087] The second step involves determining the concentration of azoxystrobin encapsulated in the obtained drug-loaded nanobottles using liquid chromatography, and then calculating the encapsulation efficiency of azoxystrobin in the nanobottles. The encapsulation efficiency of azoxystrobin in the nanobottles is then calculated using the azoxystrobin standard curve and the formula for calculating the encapsulation efficiency.

[0088]

[0089] The results are as follows Figure 3 As shown.

[0090] The results showed that the nanobottles exhibited excellent drug loading capacity.

[0091] 2) Example 1 ANT sustained-release experiment

[0092] An ANT containing 1g of AZOX was placed in a dialysis bag and sealed. It was then placed in 1L of a methanol:Tween-80:water (29.5:0.5:70; v / v / v) slow-release solution at different temperatures for a slow-release experiment. 3mL of solution was taken at regular intervals for measurement, and another 3mL of slow-release solution was added to maintain a constant solution volume. The relationship between the azoxystrobin release rate and time was obtained. The cumulative release rate of AZOX from the material was calculated using the following formula:

[0093]

[0094] In the formula, E r Cumulative ANT release (%); V e The volume (V) of the medium released at a certain time interval e =3mL); V0 is the volume of the released liquid (V0 = 1L); C n (mg mL -1 ) represents the concentration of AZOX in the sustained-release solution; m AZOX (mg) represents the total amount of AZOX in ANT.

[0095] The results are as follows Figure 7 As shown.

[0096] The results show that ANT has temperature-responsive release properties.

[0097] 3) Photothermal conversion experiment of phase change eutectic carrier with embedded photothermal agent in Example 1

[0098] Ten mL of suspensions of different concentrations of phase change eutectic support (TPS) without Cu-PDA nanobottles and phase change eutectic support (NTPS) with embedded nanobottles were placed in a glass dish, and a homogeneous suspension was obtained by sonication. An 808 nm laser (1 W / cm²) was then used. 2 Irradiate for 30 minutes, and measure the temperature of the suspension every 30 seconds using an infrared thermometer.

[0099] The results are as follows Figure 8As shown in the figure. TPS-1, TPS-2, TPS-10, and TPS-100 represent TPS concentrations of 1, 2, 10, and 100 mg / mL, respectively; NTPS-0.03, NTPS-0.06, NTPS-0.3, and NTPS-3 represent Cu-PDA nanobottles with concentrations of 0.03, 0.06, 0.3, and 3 mg / mL, respectively, added to the above TPS.

[0100] NT, TPS, and LA were placed together under sunlight to observe the phase transition of the materials.

[0101] The results are as follows Figure 9 As shown.

[0102] The results show that the Cu-PDA nanobottle, a photothermal agent, has excellent photothermal conversion performance, enabling phase transformation of the eutectic and achieving temperature-based drug release.

[0103] 4) Example 1: ANT's effect on the control of cotton Verticillium wilt

[0104] Cotton Verticillium wilt was selected as a soil-borne disease model to verify the control effect of ANT on soil-borne diseases.

[0105] Cotton seeds were cultured in a moist environment and sown after the seeds showed signs of sprouting. Inoculation began after the cotton plants had developed their second to third true leaves. The spore count of the spore suspension of Verticillium dahliae V991, the pathogen of cotton verticillium wilt, cultured in PD for one week, was adjusted to 1×10⁻⁶ spores. 7 40 mL of spore suspension was injected into the soil around the cotton roots. The roots were damaged with scissors before inoculation. Five treatments and one control were performed: ① CK (no inoculation, root damage treatment, and addition of sterile water); ② Root damage treatment, inoculated only with V991; ③ Root damage treatment, no inoculation, and 10 mL of ANT per plant; ④ Root damage treatment, inoculated with V991 first, and 10 mL of SC per plant 1 day later; ⑤ Root damage treatment, inoculated with V991 first, and 10 mL of WG per plant 1 day later; ⑥ Root damage treatment, inoculated with V991 first, and 10 mL of ANT per plant 1 day later. The AZOX concentration in SC, WG, and ANT was 0.15 mg / mL.

[0106] After cotton seedling inoculation, observe the occurrence of disease daily. Once the disease stabilizes, investigate the incidence rate and record the disease severity according to GB / T22101.5-2009 standard: Level 0: Healthy cotton plants, no diseased leaves, normal growth; Level 1: Less than one-quarter of the leaves of the cotton plant are affected, turning yellow and wilting; Level 2: More than one-quarter but less than one-half of the leaves of the cotton plant are affected, turning yellow and wilting; Level 3: More than one-half but less than three-quarters of the leaves of the cotton plant are affected, turning yellow and wilting; Level 4: More than three-quarters of the leaves of the cotton plant are affected, or all leaves fall off, and the cotton plant dies. Calculate the disease severity index and disease control efficacy using the following formula:

[0107]

[0108] The results are as follows Figure 10 As shown in Table 1.

[0109] Table 1

[0110]

[0111] The results showed that ANT had a good control effect on cotton Verticillium wilt and was superior to commonly available commercial formulations.

[0112] 5) Example 1: Experiment on the effect of ANT on cotton seed germination and seedling growth

[0113] Cotton seeds were soaked in deionized water for 6 hours and then sown in containers containing equal amounts of SC, WG, and ANT (0.02 mg AZOX / cm³). 3 ) and NT (0.06 mg / cm 3 0.2 mg / cm 3 Ten seeds were sown in each seedling pot containing peat moss, with three replicates for each treatment. The control group received deionized water. Cotton germination, seedling height, root length, stem length, dry weight, and fresh weight were recorded.

[0114] The results are as follows Figure 11 As shown in Table 2.

[0115] Table 2

[0116]

[0117]

[0118]

[0119] Note: Fresh weight / dry weight is the average weight of all cotton in each seedling pot.

[0120] The results showed that ANT and NT had no significant effect on cotton germination, root length, and plant height. In fact, cotton seedlings treated with ANT and low concentrations of NT were slightly heavier than those in the control group. ANT was not more toxic to plant growth than commercial formulations; it not only did not affect the normal growth of cotton, but could even promote plant growth to some extent.

[0121] 5) Example 1: Experiment on the effect of ANT on soil microbial community abundance

[0122] SC, WG, and ANT containing 100 mg AZOX were added to 100 g of dry soil, followed by 50 g of deionized water and mixed thoroughly. The control group was DIW. Each treatment was performed in triplicate, with soil relative humidity maintained at 50%–60%, and incubated at 298 K in the dark for 7 days. Then, 3 g of sample was taken from each group for DNA extraction.

[0123] The results are as follows Figure 12 As shown.

[0124] The results showed that ANT can improve the abundance and evenness of soil microbial communities, has a potential remediation effect on the negative impact of dominant soil bacteria, and reduces pesticide damage to microorganisms.
