The present document describes an aqueous nano-emulsion formulation comprising an oil, a solvent a sorbate, a saponin, in an amount sufficient to form a nano-emulsion of said oil in water and sufficient water to make 100 weight percent. The document also describes the use of the nano-emulsion formulation as disinfectant, pesticides and/or plant growth regulator.

A disinfectant composition is provided that has been found to be particularly effective in inactivating and/or destroying microorganisms. The disinfectant composition can include hydrogen peroxide, an organic solvent, at least one fatty acid having 6 to 9 carbon atoms or an aromatic carboxylic acid, at least two surfactants with the first surfactant being an amphoteric surfactant and the second surfactant being a nonionic surfactant, and an acidic pH adjuster. The disinfectant composition has been found to be particularly effective against microorganisms when the organic solvent and the fatty acid or aromatic carboxylic acid are present in a ratio from about 3:1 to about 30:1, the fatty acid or aromatic carboxylic acid and the amphoteric surfactant are present in a ratio from about 0.1:1 to about 3:1, and the organic solvent and the amphoteric surfactant are present in a ratio from about 1:1 to about 30:1.

This disclosure describes a biological system of plant growth promotion, pest resistance and disease resistance by application of strains of T. viride, Trichoderma harzianum K2, Bacillus amyloliquifaciens AS2, Bacillus amyloliquifaciens AS3, or a combination thereof. These strains can be used in conventional or organic agriculture for the promotion nematode resistance when applied topically as a foliar spray or as a seed coating. The highly active strains also are expected to increase plant productivity and improve quality of fruits, vegetables, flowers or other plant products.
