Description

LAMINARIN BASED FORULATION FOR AGRICULTURAL APPLICATIONS
Field of invention
The présent invention relates to a composition comprising water soluble actives.
The présent invention also relates to a proeess for the préparation of said s composition and method of use thereof.
Background of the invention
Laminarin is a polysaccharide derived from seaweed, a polymer of simple sugars linked together by glycosidic bonds. More specifically, it is a class of storage βglucans comprised of 8-(1-3)-linked glucose residues with some β-(1 -6)-intrachain 10 linkages, and some 6-0-branching in the main chain. D-mannitol occurs at 2-3% of reducing termini and these chains are referred to as M chains, while those with glucose at the reducing termini are known as G chains. The exact molecular structure of laminarin varies depending on environ mental factors such as water température, salinity and nutrient salts, waves, sea current and immersion depth. 15 Its Chemical formula is CibHsïOie (University of Hertfordshire 2014; ChEBI 2015;
Kadam, Tiwari and O'Donnell 2015).
Brown algae may contain up to 35% laminarin on a dry weight basis, depending on species, season, habitat and extraction method. Laminarin is generally 20 extracted from brown algae of the Pheophyceae type, and in particular the Focales or the Laminariales. Laminarin is known to use as a seed germination and plant growth accelerator (biostimulant).
Laminarin can be extracted starting from a raw matehal consistîng of brown algae, especially using the method disclosed in the French patent FR 9208387. The formulated product (Vacciplant) for laminarin (EPA registered) contains 3.51%
laminarin as the active ingrédient, surfactant (<10%) and two different preservatives (each <1%) that are permitted for use as food additives,
Various scientific publications describe the properties of laminarin, suggesting its use for enhancing plant defense reactions.
NETZER étal, reveal thatan infection with the pathogen S. oxysporum triggersthe induction of laminarinase (Biological abstracts, vol. 68, no. 1, 1979).
BONHOFF et al. reveal the properties of laminarin as an elicitor of phytoalexin and callose (Biological abstracts, vol. 86, no. 4, 1988).
KUROSAKI et al. (Biological abstracts, vol. 85, no. 2, 1988) and PEARCE 10 (Biological abstracts, vol. 74, no. 8, 1982) confirm the eliciting effects of laminarin, in particular in respect of lignification, while at the same time stating that these effects are weak compared with those of the known elicitors.
The challenge involved in developing commercially acceptable products containing agriculturally active compounds continues to increase due to the rapid emergence 15 of more complex customer and regulatory requirements. These agricultural compositions must exhibit excellent chemioal stability and must also maintain a high level of physical stability under a severe range of storage and use conditions. Handling of a liquid product in bulk storage facilities represents a spécial challenge because the product can be subject to high shear forces at both high and low 20 températures. This emerging area of performance is critioal to customer satisfaction and commercial success with a product. At the same time the demand on the agrochemical composition performance has been încreasing, the number of auxiliary Chemicals approved for use in agrochemical compositions by the various regulatory authorities has been decreasing due to more stringent 25 standards for the toxicological and ecological properties of these materials.
The agrochemical compositions are generally prepared using one or more adjuvants sometimes in spécifie combinations to provide optimum biological activity. Sometimes the stability of the formulation may be disturbed, and one or more component séparâtes oui, for example as a discrète phase. 1n general, the 30 séparation of a discrète phase from an agrochemical is highly undesirable, particularly when the formulation is sold in bulk containers. In these circumstances
it is virtuafly impossible to re-homogenize the formulation and to achieve even distribution of the components for application. Furthermore, the formulation must be stable in respect of storage for prolonged péri ods in both hot and cold climates. These ail factors présent formidable problems to the formulator.
s There is a need in the art for solvent system to develop a formulation that has both unique performance characteristics and a good physicochemical stability.
Advantages of the Invention:
It is an advantage of the présent invention to provide a composition comprisîng a water soluble active which is devoid of any haziness or phase séparation and 10 imparts good stability to the final product even at low températures.
Yet another advantage of the invention is a composition of water soluble active having enhanced bioefficacy.
Further advantage of the présent invention is a process for preparing a formulation comprisîng a water soluble active alone or in combination as described herein in 15 this spécification.
Yet another advantage of the présent invention a composition that exhibits excellent Chemical and physical stability under a severe range of storage and use conditions.
These and other advantages of the présent invention would be apparent from the 20 description of the invention set out hereinafter.
