Abstract
The effect of gold nanoparticles on the mortality of entomopathogenic nematodes Steinernema feltiae from Owinema biopreparation was studied. The effect of different concentrations of nano-Au on pathogenic properties of entomopathogenic nematodes was also studied. It was found that mortality depended on nano-Au concentrations and on the time of larval contact with them.
