背景:传统农药水溶性差,高毒性和低生物利用度。因此,开发高效、生态的新型化学农药产品和制剂对农药行业的持续健康发展具有重要意义。
目的:本研究旨在合成一系列基于查尔酮结构(HPPO)的衍生物,然后利用N-琥珀酰壳聚糖(NSCS)的两亲性和自组装特性制备HPPO@NSCS纳米颗粒(HPPO@NSCSNPs),以实现HPPO的绿色应用,并研究了HPPO@NSCSNPs的抗真菌活性和作用机制。
方法:以壳聚糖为载体,通过结构修饰合成了NSCS。基于其两亲性和自组装特性,通过与活性小分子HPPO-16结合,合理制备了HPPO-16@NSCSNPs。傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR),透射电子显微镜(TEM),动态光散射(DLS),采用荧光光谱法(FS)和高效液相色谱法(HPLC)对NSCS和HPPO-16@NSCSNPs的理化性质进行了表征。纳米农药对枯萎病菌的抑制活性(R。solani)进行了体内和体外测试。从病原菌形态学观察,探讨了抗真菌作用机制,荧光染色和酶活性测定。
结果:28个基于查尔酮结构的小分子(HPPO-1-28),成功合成了NSCS和HPPO-16@NSCS。HPPO-16@NSCS的应用可能会损害发展,细胞结构,细胞能量利用,和真菌的代谢途径。HPPO-16@NSCSNPs对水稻叶片和叶鞘的保护作用分别为80.9%和76.1%,分别,它比唑菌酯好.
结论:这项研究表明,这些简单的查尔酮衍生物可以进一步探索作为可行的抗菌替代品,而作为新型农药基质的NSCS可以用于递送更多不溶性农药。
BACKGROUND: Traditional pesticides have poor-water solubility, high toxicity and low bioavailability. Therefore, it is of great significance for the sustainable and healthy development of the pesticide industry to develop efficient and ecofriendly new chemical pesticide products and formulations.
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to synthesize a series of derivatives based on chalcone structure (HPPO), and then use the amphiphilic and self-assembly characteristics of N-succinyl-chitosan (NSCS) to prepare HPPO@NSCS nanoparticles (HPPO@NSCS NPs) in order to realize the green application of HPPO, and investigate the antifungal activity and mechanisms of HPPO@NSCS NPs.
METHODS: NSCS was synthesized by structural modification using chitosan as the carrier. Based on its amphiphilic and self-assembly characteristics, HPPO-16@NSCS NPs were reasonably prepared by combining with active small molecule HPPO-16. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), fluorescence spectroscopy (FS) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were used to characterize the physicochemical properties of NSCS and HPPO-16@NSCS NPs. The inhibitory activity of nanopesticides against Rhizoctonia solani (R. solani) was tested in vivo and in vitro. The mechanism of antifungal action was discussed from the observation of pathogen morphology, fluorescence staining and enzyme activity determination.
RESULTS: 28 small molecules based on chalcone structure (HPPO-1-28), NSCS and HPPO-16@NSCS were successfully synthesized. The application of HPPO-16@NSCS could impair the development, cell structure, cellular energy utilization, and metabolism pathways of the fungi. The protective effects of HPPO-16@NSCS NPs on rice leaves and leaf sheaths were 80.9 and 76.1 %, respectively, which were better than those of azoxystrobin.
CONCLUSIONS: This study reveals that these simple chalcone derivatives can be further explored as viable antibacterial alternatives and NSCS as a novel pesticide matrix can be used for the delivery of more insoluble pesticides.
