An antibacterial and antifungal polyester laminated structure is provided, and includes a main structure support layer and an antibacterial and antifungal functional layer. The main structure support layer is formed of a polyester material, and the main structure support layer enables the polyester laminated structure to have an impact-resistant strength of not less than 20 kg-cm/cm. The antibacterial and antifungal functional layer is formed of an antibacterial and antifungal polyester material, and the antibacterial and antifungal polyester material includes an antibacterial and antifungal additive. The antibacterial and antifungal additive includes a plurality of glass beads that are dispersed in the antibacterial and antifungal functional layer. A plurality of silver nanoparticles are distributed on an outer surface of each of the glass beads, and the antibacterial and antifungal additive enables the antibacterial and antifungal functional layer to have antibacterial and antifungal capabilities.

An antibacterial and antifungal polyester material is provided, which includes a polyester resin substrate material and a plurality of functional polyester master-batches. The functional polyester master-batches are dispersed in the polyester resin substrate material. Each of the functional polyester master-batches includes a polyester resin matrix material and an antibacterial and antifungal additive. The antibacterial and antifungal additive includes a plurality of glass beads. The glass beads are dispersed in the polyester resin matrix material, and a plurality of silver nanoparticles are distributed on an outer surface of each of the glass beads.

In a method of controlling a weed in a soil, an effective amount of a solid composition is applied on the soil. The solid composition includes fungal dormant sclerotium, a carbon source nutrient, and a nitrogen source nutrient. The solid composition is a dried solid composition. The solid composition may weed out target plants, including the burcucumber which is designated as an ecologically damaging plant and suppress soil-borne diseases like Sclerotinia dollar spot disease. By using the solid composition, burcucumber and Sclerotinia dollar spot disease can effectively be controlled, and it is possible to make significant gains in solving problems with biological products containing microorganisms in stages of production, storage, distribution, and usage process.

The present invention is related to the field of liquid disinfectant formulas, specifically with obtaining disinfectant compositions applicable to hard and smooth surfaces, porous surfaces and for human use; particularly with disinfectant compositions that allow the surface or surfaces where it is applied, a disinfection with a prolonged effect, for periods greater than 24 hours. More particularly with the use of long-lasting disinfectant compounds, some of them approved by international agencies such as the EPA, and which are also approved by the FDA for cosmetic use due to their low or null toxicity. More particularly, the present invention relates to the formulation of said compositions.

Antimicrobial defensin peptide variants comprising modified C-terminal fragments of a defensin and nucleic acids encoding the same are disclosed. Compositions comprising the defensin variant peptides and methods of their use to control microbial infections of plants and vertebrate subjects as well as contamination of feedstuffs and foodstuffs are also disclosed.

The present invention relates to a stable agrochemical formulation, comprising a silicate salt, zinc oxide nanoparticles, a vegetable oil, a surfactant or a mixture of surfactants, a dispersant or a mixture of dispersants and, a stabilizer or mixture of stabilizers useful in the prevention or control of a plant disease produced by a microorganism, such as fungi or oomycetes. Additionally, the present invention relates to a method for preparing such agrochemical formulations. The agrochemical formulations and the method of the invention facilitate the preparation of agrochemical formulations containing silicate salts and zinc oxide nanoparticles, which furthermore decrease the environmental impact produced by the dispersion of pesticidal, bactericidal, fungicidal and oomyceticidal compounds.
