Development of Nanoemulsion containing Piper betle Essential Oil as an effective natural insecticide

The study aimed to prepare nanoemulsion containing Piper belle or betel leaf essential oil and to determine the effectiveness of the nanoinsectide on insects. The formulation of nanoemulsion was obtained from the points plotted on the ternary phase diagram for the system that consists of water, oil...
