Reflexões sobre os impactos dos agrotóxicos na saúde dos ecossistemas: os nanoagrotóxicos
Introduction: The advantages associated with the use of nanotechnology have led to numerous applications across a wide range of fields. Mastering the ability to manipulate the unique properties of nanomaterials tailoring them to human needs has been pivotal in this regard. In agriculture, the use of formulations containing nanoparticles with agrochemical activity (such as nano-pesticides and nano-fertilizers) is believed to offer the potential for increased productivity, reduced costs, and a decrease in adverse imp …
