  • Aerogel from chemo-enzymatically oxidized fenugreek gum: an innovative delivery system of isothiazolinones biocides
    Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2018
    Co-Authors: Tiziana Silvetti, Luca Merlini, Milena Brasca, Yves M. Galante
    Abstract:

    Aerogels of chemo-enzymatically oxidized, lyophilized fenugreek gum (EOLFG) were evaluated as “delivery system” (DS) of the microbiocide mix 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (CIT) and 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (MIT). These biocides have a broad activity spectrum and a low MIC (minimal inhibitory concentration) in the ppm range. They are approved under the EU Biocidal Product Directive for various applications, including cosmetics, are classified as skin sensitizers, and are under increasing scrutiny to limit or eliminate their use. We demonstrate that CIT/MIT can be uptaken into EOLFG aerogel corks by immersion into aqueous solutions of microbiocides, followed by blotting and re-lyophilization to generate “loaded” EOLFG aerogels. Incubation of “loaded” corks in water brings about a slow and almost complete release of the absorbed actives having the same MIC of free biocides against selected bacterial pathogens. This new biomaterial could represent an innovative DS of microbiocides and other actives for a variety of industrial, food, cosmetic, and biomedical applications.

  • Wood borers in structural timber - European regulations for their control and can TTIP comply?
    2020
    Co-Authors: Rüdiger Plarre
    Abstract:

    The control of wood boring beetles in structural timber is uniformly regulated in the European Union. Registration and authorization of wood preservatives for the European market has to follow a regulated procedure as described under the Biocidal Product Directive “EU 528/2012”. Non-Biocidal measures of control such as by physical means are regulated individually by each member state on the national level. The Biocidal Product Directive demands voluminous data sets for Product identity, environmental and health risk assessments, proof of efficacy, and management strategies to avoid the development of resistance, just to name the most important. With TTIP (Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership) on the horizon, it must be expected that wood preservatives coming from the North American Market to Europe and vice versa will mutually be recognized in the future, despite existing differences in registration requirements. The presentation will focus on major differences in standard efficacy tests for wood preservatives with claims for beetle control, which, next to others, have to be passed before Product placement on the respective market. Desirable needs for future harmonizing will be identified in order to overcome consumers distrust on each side of the partners.
