Patent number: 9961899Abstract: Provided herein are aqueous suspension concentrate compositions comprising biologically active 3,5-disubstituted-1,2,4-oxadiazoles or salts thereof that are useful, for example, in the control of nematodes. Nematodes are active, flexible, elongate organisms that live on moist surfaces or in liquid environments, including films of water within soil and moist tissues within other organisms. Many species of nematodes have evolved to be very successful parasites of plants and animals and, as a result, are responsible for significant economic losses in agriculture and livestock.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2013Date of Patent: May 8, 2018Assignee: Monsanto Technology LLCInventors: Yiwei Ding, Shaun Raj Selness, Urszula J.

Patent number: 9445599Abstract: A method of producing lignin-based matrix microparticles for the controlled release of an agricultural active includes forming an emulsion of an organic solution in an aqueous solution, wherein the organic solution contains a lignin derivative and an agricultural active in a volatile organic solvent and the aqueous solution contains an emulsifier; and removing the organic solvent, thereby producing microparticles having a matrix comprising the lignin derivative within which the agricultural active is distributed. Small, spherical lignin-based matrix microparticles that release an agricultural active at a controlled rate are described, as are plants and plant propagation materials that are treated with such microparticles.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2008Date of Patent: September 20, 2016Assignee: Monsanto Technology LLCInventors: Jawed Asrar, Yiwei Ding

Patent number: 7993495Abstract: A method is provided for decontaminating a surface that is susceptible to contamination by a contaminant by applying to the surface a coating which produces a decontaminating agent for the contaminant in response to a signal, connecting the electroactive coating to a source of a signal, and when the surface is contaminated, applying the signal to the electroactive coating, thereby producing one or more decontaminating agents which neutralize or destroy the contaminant. Coatings for practicing the method and articles that have been protected by the novel coatings are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2006Date of Patent: August 9, 2011Assignee: Crosslink Polymer Research, a division of Lumimove, Inc.Inventors: Patrick J.

Publication number: 20100325757Abstract: Fungicidal compositions are provided that comprise a silthiofam-type fungicide and a fungicide that is selected from the group consisting of diazole fungicides, triazole fungicides and strobilurin type fungicides. Combinations of fluqinconazole and simeconazole or azoxystrobin, and simeconazole and azoxystrobin are also provided. Methods for treating plants and plant propagation materials with the fungicidal compositions are also taught, as are plants and their propagation materials which have been so treated, and controlled release formulations that contain the fungicidal compositions.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2010Publication date: December 23, 2010Applicant: MONSANTO TECHNOLOGY, LLCInventors: Jawed Asrar, Claudia Heppner, Yiwei Ding

Patent number: 7836630Abstract: A method of improving germination rate in pesticide-treated plant seeds involves forming a pesticide-free polymer coating on a plant seed before treating the seed with a pesticide, where the type of polymer and the coating thickness are designed to block phytotoxic contact of the pesticide with the seed while allowing sufficient transfer of oxygen to maintain the seed's viability and sufficient transfer of moisture under environmental conditions normally encountered by the seed after planting to enable its germination; and then treating the coated plant seed with a pesticide. Seeds that have been treated by this method, and plants that are grown from the treated seeds are also described.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2003Date of Patent: November 23, 2010Assignee: Monsanto Technology LLCInventors: Jawed Asrar, Vladmir O. Bekker, Yiwei Ding

Patent number: 7774978Abstract: A method of controlling the release rate of an agricultural active ingredient from a seed that has been treated with that active includes providing a seed that has been treated with the active ingredient, applying to the treated seed a film that includes an emulsion of a polymer in a liquid in which both the agricultural active ingredient and the polymer have low levels of solubility, and then curing the film to form a water insoluble polymer coating on the surface of the treated seed. Seeds that have been treated by this method are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: August 1, 2007Date of Patent: August 17, 2010Assignee: Stepan CompanyInventors: Yiwei Ding, Jawed Asrar

Publication number: 20080242548Abstract: A method of producing a controlled release form of an agricultural active material includes the provision of an organic liquid composition in which the active is present, but where the liquid composition is free from aromatic solvents and is maintained below the normal melting point of the active. The liquid composition is formed into small droplets and the droplets are enclosed by a non-water soluble shell to provide microcapsules, the shell of which is designed to release the agricultural active at a pre-selected controlled rate when the microcapsule is exposed to natural environmental conditions. Controlled release forms of agricultural actives are also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2008Publication date: October 2, 2008Applicant: Monsanto Technology, L.L.C.Inventors: Jawed Asrar, Yiwei Ding, Michael E.
