Abstract:Although agrochemical practices can enhance agricultural
productivity,
their intensive application has resulted in the deterioration of ecosystems.
Therefore, it is necessary to develop more efficient and less toxic
methods against pests and infections while improving crop productivity.
Moving toward sustainable development, in this work, we originally
described the preparation of a composite (ZIF-8@HA) consisting of
the coating of zeolitic-like metal–organic framework (MOF)
ZIF-8 (based on Zn, an essential mi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
