Thioketone stabilized fungal spore carriers: BayerRecent Research Landscape

Premature spore germination and degradation in storage lead to poor field efficacy and wasted inventory. These formulations eliminate water to stabilize biological viability and ensure consistent delivery of active fungal agents.

What technical problems is Bayer addressing in Thioketone stabilized fungal spore carriers?

Pathogen induced crop yield loss

(48)evidences

Slow or uneven germination of spores and seedlings leads to poor crop uniformity. Accelerating biological activation ensures reliable plant growth and higher survival rates.

Active ingredient chemical degradation

(17)evidences

Premature degradation of sensitive agrochemical compounds in aqueous or polymer environments. Preventing chemical breakdown ensures consistent bioefficacy and shelf-life.

Pesticide environmental degradation

(10)evidences

Premature degradation of pyrethroids and insecticidal mixtures in liquid storage. Preventing chemical breakdown ensures long-term efficacy and shelf-life stability.
