I want to make OD based formulation for EPF based pesticid. I want to ask about percentage of active ingre and other Adjuvant in formulatio. Thanks in advance
Dear Umar, you need to know the number of fungal spores in a unit quantity based on how you have formulated the product. Based on simple dilution method, you can decide how much will be concentration of spores after dilution. That will tell you approx. concentration of spores after % dilution. I hope this will solve your problem.
The limiting factor for biopesticide success, their ability to withstand exposure to ultraviolet light and direct sunlight. therefore, it is necessary to add chemical compounds to the formulation to protect against ultraviolet radiation Or so-called photostabilizer
you must add a photostabilizer to the biopesticide formulation
I also agree to Sabry and the paper shared by Samaneh is also very useful to Umar. We need to add photostabilizers and /or UV protectents, besides other chemicals like adjuvents.
