The judicious, sustainable, environmentally conscious, and economically prudent strategies of microbiological control methods are exemplary in mitigating agricultural pests and diseases. Nevertheless, the susceptibilities of microorganisms to formulation intricacies and environmental dynamics during storage and application can profoundly impact the efficacy and durability of resulting products. For this challenge, biodegradable microparticles incorporating Bacillus amyloliquefaciens BS01 were engineered using emulsion. We orchestrated variations in sodium alginate concentrations (3.5% and 5% wt) and stirring rates (1000 and 1500 rpm) to plan particle dimensions. Comprehensive assessments of these microparticles were conducted, involving particle size analyses (via laser diffraction), morphology (via scanning electron microscopy), UV protective attributes, and antagonistic efficacy. The culmination of these efforts manifests in the form of spherical, cross-linked microparticles, characterized by a diminutive diameter of 47 µm, featuring resilient cell viability, UVB radiation endurance, and a proclivity for mitigating the activities of fungi such as Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Rhizoctonia solani within the controlled milieu of in vitro assays. These discernments propel our technological advancement into the vanguard of pioneering a novel industrial process.
