Résumé
Résumé
Nanoencapsulated formulations of pesticides have been recently developed, and some products are now marketed for specific applications in agriculture. Pesticide residues present in raw agricultural products can degrade or react during food processing steps. To date, the fate of nanopesticides during food processing has not been well described. In this study, the thermal degradation of azoxystrobin (AZOX) in conventional and nanoencapsulated (Allosperse and nSiO2) formulations was first assessed in water, spiked strawberry, and incurred strawberry models. The thermal degradation followed first-order kinetics when heated at 100 °C in the water model. The thermal degradation of AZOX in nanoformulations in strawberry models (18% AZOX decrease) was comparable to or lower than in the conventional formulation (21%), possibly due to the nanocarriers protecting the active ingredient from hydrolytic degradation. Out of 32 thermal degradation products (TDPs), only two were detected in both the spiked water and strawberry models, indicating differences in the thermal degradation reactions for AZOX in these two models. Identical TDPs were detected for both conventional and nanoformulations for each specific model, except for the absence of one (TDP22) in the nSiO2 formulations. The nanoencapsulation of AZOX did not result in new TDPs in any of the matrices. Only six of the TDPs detected in water, four in spiked strawberries, and two in incurred strawberries have been previously reported in environmental studies on the metabolism of AZOX. Based on the observed TDPs, AZOX thermal degradation pathways include ether cleavage, hydrolysis, demethylation, and decarboxylation. Overall, although nanocarriers have no impact on the degradation product types, nanocarriers had a slight but significant impact on the degradation rate of pesticide active ingredients.
