title: Release kinetics of liquid flowable formulations of gossyplure, sex pheromone of the pink bollworm mothPectinophora gossypiella saunders (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae).
abstract: The kinetics of the release of gossyplure, measured in the laboratory at 34.5 ± 0.5 °C, from two liquid flowable formulations are presented and discussed. The data indicate that liquid flowable formulations, defined as those formulations where the active ingredient (in this case gossyplure) is attached to a particulate material, which in turn is suspended in a liquid medium, probably can be successfully used to disseminate pheromones and other behavior-modifying chemicals, although much work remains to be done in the development of these and other liquid flowable formulations.
