Pterostilbene-loaded PLGA nanoparticles alter phenylpropanoid and oxylipin metabolism in Solanum lycopersicum L. leaves.

ABSTRACT: Due to the fast-changing global climate, conventional agricultural systems have to deal with more unpredictable and harsh environmental conditions leading to compromise food production. The application of phytonanotechnology can ensure safer and more sustainable crop production, allowing the target-specific delivery of bioactive molecules with great and partially explored positive effects for agriculture, such as an increase in crop production and plant pathogen reduction. In this study, the effect of free pterostilbene (PTB) and poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) nanoparticles (NPs) loaded with pterostilbene was investigated on Solanum lycopersicum L. metabolism. An untargeted NMR-based metabolomics approach was used to examine primary and secondary metabolism whereas a targeted HPLC-MS
