Preparation and controlled release properties of zinc-layered hydroxides-cinnamaldehyde and gellan gum cinnamaldehyde hydrogel beads
Mosquitoes are giving threat and responsible for the transmission of many deadly diseases such as malaria, dengue, chikungunya and the latest outbreak disease, the zika virus. Insecticides and larvicides are one of the solutions to lower down the mosquitoes population but most of the products in the...

Mosquitoes are giving threat and responsible for the transmission of many deadly diseases such as malaria, dengue, chikungunya and the latest outbreak disease, the zika virus.
