dc.description.abstractThe study was carried out to assess the toxicity of nanoemulsion of hexanal formulation on common honey bee species visiting mango orchards. Nano emulsion of hexanal at varying concentrations was tested using a dry film method. All the tested nanoemulsion of hexanal formulation and standard check pure hexanal, were less toxic to honey bees. Findings indicate these plant product derivatives are safe for worker honey bee populations. Hexanal is a plant-derived compound used to inhibit the phospholipase D enzyme in the skin of fruit and it is associated with the extension of shelf life of fruit.en
