Abstract

- Nanoformulation of poor water soluble insect-repellent (diethylphenylacetamide) into nanometric hydrodispersive form by poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) polymerization followed by PIT emulsification.
- Structural and morphological assessment of droplets attained above and below CMC of PEG.
- Enhanced bioefficacy of the obtained nanoformulation as comparative to its bulk counterpart against Culex tritaeniorhynchus, even with lower exposure concentrations.
- The formulation system to attain monodispersed stable and bio-efficacious nanometric form of poorly water-soluble organic compounds.
