Noh, supervisor Biosciences and medical engineering Also available in printed version Fungal infection is a common disease that occurs in black pepper plantation that may have resulted from inefficient fungicide application and fungicide leaching, especially during rainy seasons. This study aims to overcome the leaching problem of fungicide by using encapsulated fungicide in multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Mancozeb is an organic fungicide that are widely used in agricultural crops against a wide range of fungal diseases. Encapsulation of mancozeb is a process of surrounding or enveloping mancozeb substance within MWCNTs. This process was prepared by 20 min and 30 min of bath sonication. The encapsulated mancozeb-MWCNTs was analyzed using UV-vis spectroscopy. Anti-fungal assay shows that growth of fungi isolated from Malaysia black pepper plant leaves were inhibited when encapsulated mancozeb-MWCNT was applied on the growth media. Interestingly, the inhibition was sustained even after seven days of application. These findings provide essential application on the application of nanomaterial for efficient, safe and sustainable pesticide delivery that can be applied by pepper plantations in Malaysia fahmimoksen UTM 46 p.
