Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleLarvicidal Activity of Spondias purpurea (Sineguelas) Leaf and Hylocereus costaricensis (Dragon Fruit) Stem Extracts Against Aedes aegyptiAlfredo V. Corpuz, Nigell Mikhail A. Gallardo, Ace Danielle C. AveroThe study determined the larvicidal activity of the different concentrations of Spondias purpurea and Hylocereus costaricensis extracts by measuring percent mortality in Aedes aegypti larvae, a primary vector of dengue and other arboviral diseases. The hypothesis proposed that combining both extracts would yield greater larvicidal activity due to potential synergistic interactions. Ethanolic extraction was used to isolate a wide array … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 20 Nov 2025 · 2,417 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleLarvicidal Activity of Bruceine A against Aedes aegypti and Toxicity on Vero CellsDwi Sutiningsih, Mustofa, Tri Baskoro Tunggul Satoto, Edhi MartonoVector control is still based on the use of chemical insecticides, which can cause death of nontarget animals, pollution and the emergence of vector resistance. This study aims to assess the larvicidal activity of bruceine A against larvae of Aedes aegypti and its cytotoxic activity against Vero cells. Extraction and isolation of bruceine A from the seeds of Brucea javanica … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2018 · 7,912 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIn-vitro Larvicidal Potentials of Achillea Extracts on Strongylid LarvaeLyudmila Lider, Yerlan Suleimen, Gulnur Mamytbekova et al.Strongylid infections remain among the most widespread and clinically significant helminthoses in horses, with increasing concerns regarding anthelmintic resistance. Against this background, we investigated the in-vitro larvicidal activity of Achillea salicifolia and Achillea setacea extracts against strongylid larvae. We evaluated concentrations of 20, 30, and 40% at exposure times of 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 h (n = 3). Larval … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 21 Jul 2026 · 1,032 accessesView PDF Cite
