Abstract

Tribolium castaneum (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) is one of the main pests for causing quantitative and qualitative damage to post-harvest products, generating losses of hundreds of millions of dollars in various economic sectors. Thus, this study aimed to identify insecticide inventions to control T. castaneum in stored products. This is a study of technological prospecting carried out through the patent research tool Derwent Innovations Index and the Espacenet and INPI bases. 86 patents related to products with potential insecticide against T. castaneum, without duplicate, were identified. Among these, most are synthetic chemical insecticides (66,3%), followed by bioinsecticides (23,2%) and transgenic products (10,5%). Patents related to bioinsecticides are of botanical origin (70%), bacteria (25%) and fungus (5%). The results of this study point to the importance of developing technologies using new sources of natural products with insecticide potential to control this pest, safe for the environment and human health.
