Screening for adulticidal bioactivity of South African plants against Anopheles arabiensis [PDF]

Malaria Journal, 2011
This study was conducted to evaluate whether a selection of South African ethnomedicinal plants included in this study displayed insecticidal properties when screened against adult stages of the mosquito.381 crude extracts of 80 plant taxa in 42 families were sprayed onto ceramic tiles and screened using the cone bio-assay method for insecticide ...

Biological evaluation of a series of benzothiazole derivatives as mosquitocidal agents

Open Chemistry, 2019
Aedes aegypti is associated with the transmission of numerous human and animal diseases, such as yellow fever, dengue fever, chikungunya, and more recently Zika virus. Emerging insecticide resistance has created a need to develop new mosquitocidal agents

Comparing Risk of West Nile Virus against Risk of Adulticiding

Environmental Health Perspectives, 2006
Peterson et al. (2006) compared the risk of ground-based ultra-low-volume (ULV) adulticiding against the risk of West Nile virus (WNV). They concluded that [B]y virtually any current human-health measure, the risks from infection by WNV exceed the risks from exposure to mosquito insecticides.

Larvicidal and adulticidal effects of some Egyptian oils against Culex pipiens

Scientific Reports, 2022
AbstractMosquitoes and mosquito-borne diseases represent an increasing global challenge. Plant extract and/or oils could serve as alternatives to synthetic insecticides. The larvicidal effects of 32 oils (1000 ppm) were screened against the early 4th larvae of Culex pipiens and the best oils were evaluated against adults and analyzed by gas ...

Monitoring spirodiclofen resistance in female Brevipalpus yothersi (Acari: Tenuipalpidae) from citrus orchards in Southeastern Brazil

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 410-424, August 2026.
Spirodiclofen resistance levels in B. yothersi varied geographically across the Brazilian citrus belt, with higher resistance in the central region. Sublethal effects included reduced oviposition, increased non‐viable eggs and disrupted female reproduction.

Cedrela fissilis Vell. Inner Bark: LC–MS/MS‐Based Chemical Profiling and Toxicological Effects

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Investigating the mechanistic toxicity of plant extracts is essential for safety assessment. The predictive toxicological effects of Cedrela fissilis were evaluated, and LC–MS/MS‐based chemical profiling was performed. The hydroethanolic extract (HeECf) and ethyl acetate (EA) fraction were assessed in multimodel systems with different levels ...
