10 results about "Semiochemical" patented technology

The present disclosure is directed to insect repellant compositions comprising one or more semiochemicals produced by lady beetles. The compositions mimic the pheromones or odor of lady beetles and thus repel aphids and other soft bodied insects that are typically preyed upon by the same. The composition can be used to protect plants, fields, and the like from consumption by these herbivorous insects.

The present disclosure describes methods of using semiochemicals for insect pest control, and more specifically methods of using semiochemicals in agricultural fields for effectively disruptive mating in insect pests based on competitive attraction.

The present invention provides a delivery matrix comprising a carbohydrate derivative and at least one semiochemical for trapping and / or attracting and / or deterring at least one aquatic organism. The present invention provides a method for trapping and / or attracting a crustacean, said method comprising delivering an effective amount of specific semiochemicals.

The invention relates to the field of semiochemicals, and describes in particular a composition in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion comprising an aqueous phase, and an oily phase comprising a semiochemical composition, in particular suitable for administration in the form of a mist, as well as its preparation process. The invention also relates to the non-therapeutic use of the composition according to the invention for administration, in particular by spraying using a mister, on the skin of an animal or a human, or on the skin of farm animals treated as a group, or on an element of the environment such as textiles and / or objects and / or walls, or by spraying into the air, in particular close to the nose of an animal or a human.

The invention relates to the field of semiochemicals and, in particular, describes a composition in the form of a concentrate of these products that can be diluted in water, comprising a semiochemical composition, specifically a lipophilic semiochemical composition dispersible in water, as well as a method for its preparation. The invention also relates to the non-therapeutic use of the diluted composition according to the invention for topical administration, particularly cutaneous administration, to an animal or a human.

The invention relates to a method of releasing a semiochemical in an environment by passive diffusion, wherein the method comprises contacting a stick presenting with an alveolar internal structure extending over its longitudinal section with a composition of semiochemical, where the composition of semiochemical comprises a solvent that is an alcohol or an ester, preferably an alcohol or an ester with a density inferior to 1, a kinematic viscosity inferior or equal to 15 mm2 / s at 20°C and / or a dynamic viscosity inferior or equal to 14 mPa / s at 20°C, and which is volatile at room temperature, and enabling the stick to be filled by capillary action with the said composition of semiochemical and to release the said composition of semiochemical in the environment over time. The stick can be made of the stem of a palm tree of the Calamus genus. The invention also relates to a kit for passive diffusion of a semiochemical, wherein said kit comprises one or more sticks and a composition of semiochemical, optionally with a further container for holding the composition of semiochemical and the sticks while used. The invention also relates to a stick or a set or a kit comprising a plurality of sticks filled with a composition of semiochemical or the use of a kit, or of a filled stick, for releasing a semiochemical in the environment.

The invention relates to the field of semiochemicals, and describes in particular a composition in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion comprising an aqueous phase, and an oily phase comprising a semiochemical composition, in particular suitable for administration in the form of a cream, as well as its preparation process. The invention also relates to the non-therapeutic use of the composition according to the invention for topical, in particular cutaneous, administration to an animal or human.

The invention relates to the field of agricultural planting, in particular to a biodegradable mulching film for preventing and controlling pests in rice fields and a preparation method of the biodegradable mulching film. The mulching film comprises a biodegradable base material, biopheromone and auxiliaries, the biopheromone is intraspecific pheromone capable of influencing the same species of organisms or interspecific pheromone capable of influencing different species of organisms, mating and breeding of pests can be influenced through the intraspecific pheromone, natural enemies of the pests can be attracted through the interspecific pheromone, and therefore the pests can be prevented and controlled. The preparation method comprises the following steps: preparing raw materials of each component; performing drying pretreatment on the raw materials and uniformly mixing the raw materials; carrying out melt blending on the mixture; and performing film blowing forming to obtain a mulching film finished product. According to the invention, the physical barrier prevention and control function of the mulching film and the biochemical regulation and control function of the biopheromone are integrated, the synergistic interaction on pests is realized, and the biopheromone can be gradually degraded along with the mulching film, so that the effects of long-acting slow release, time saving and labor saving can be achieved.
