Molybdenum nutrition is an essential component to healthy plant growth. Molybdate which is the predominant form available to plants is required at very low levels where it is known to participate in various redox reactions in plants. The reduction or loss of Mo-dependent enzyme activity, either directly or through diminished internal molybdenum levels, adversely affects plant development,…
As pointed out by the JP2 project entitled "A Sustainable Release of Nutrients by Smart Micro- and Nanogels based on Polyetheramines-Bisepoxide for Agriculture Purposes" (FAPESP Process No. 2021/06552-1), there is significant relevance in developing micro and nanogels (from commercially available reagents) based on aliphatic polyetheramines and bisepoxide for agricultural purposes. In par…
This FAPESP research project (young investigator JP-phase 2) will be developed by a multidisciplinary team with a principal investigator and four associate researchers (one of these researchers is from NDSU - North Dakota State University, USA, one is from WSU -Washington State University, USA, and two are from universities in Brazil) as well as undergraduate and graduate students. The cu…

The Clustobrane project emerged from a discussion between E. Molina (Univ. Franca, Brazil) and Y. Molard (Univ. Rennes 1, France) during the 4th Interacional Conference on multifunctional, Hybrid and nanomaterials hold in Sitges (Spain) in march 2015 where the two project leaders first met. They decided there to prepare some proof of concept materials to elaborate a family of new function…
This research project will be developed by a team with a responsible researcher and two research associates, as well as its undergraduate students and graduate students. The objective of this proposal is to develop new materials for pharmaceutical formulation of transdermal (patches) and implantable systems for controlled drug delivery-based nanostructured materials, such as hybrid organi…
The low utilization efficiency of conventional foliar formulations generally results in their excessive use, which can increase costs and toxicity, causing ecosystem destruction and food pollution. In this work, the use of polyetheramine-tannic acid complexes is proposed as a new foliar adhesive formulation aimed at increasing foliar retention time and potentially serving as a carrier for…
Micronutrients are important elements required by plants in small quantities. The most common micronutrients required by plants are iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), molybdenum (Mo), nikel (Ni), cobalt (Co) and copper (Cu). Cobalt as a micronutrient is essential for leguminous plants as beings well as human; it is a component of vitamin B12 and is involved in the fixation of N2 in the…

Zinc (Zn) is an essential element required for the growth and development of all livingorganisms, including humans and plants.[1] Zinc stimulated the activity of enzymes forprotein synthesis and energy production which plays an important role in seed development,and zinc-deficient plants show a delayed maturity[2]. In crops, Zn deficiency causes stuntedgrowth, yield reductions, widespread…
Polymeric materials in agriculture and food industry have been arousing great interest from researchers and academics due to their unique properties and broad applicability range. Here we propose to develop micro- and nanogels (from commercially available reagents) based on aliphatic polyetheramines and bisepoxide for agricultural purposes. In particular, the use of these gels for control…
The applications of polymeric materials in controlled release formulations has increased considerably in recent years. Controlled release relates the use of polymer-containing agents of agricultural activity which are released into the environment of interest at relatively constant rates over prolonged period of time to avoid the risk of the reagents being washed away by rain or irrigatio…

Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element for humans and a component of biologically important proteins, such as antioxidant enzymes. However, selenium deficiency in diets currently affects over 15% of the world's population. One of the solutions aimed at increasing selenium content in foods produced in selenium-deficient areas is the biofortification of plants with this element. The mo…
Plant nanobiotechnology is a rapidly advancing field of scientific research. However, our understanding of the mechanisms by which nanoparticles penetrate plant surfaces, plant cells, and organelles remains limited. In this project, we will synthesize and characterize nanogels made from aliphatic polyetheramines and epoxide for efficient delivery of active agents. In particular, we will e…
