Piperitenone Oxide as Toxic, Repellent, and Reproduction Retardant Toward Malarial VectorAnopheles stephensi(Diptera: Anophelinae) [PDF]

Journal of Medical Entomology, 2004
Anopheles stephensi (Liston) is a well-known vector of malarial parasite in tropical countries. The developing trend of resistance in mosquitoes toward synthetic mosquitocidal agents makes their management extremely difficult. Effectiveness of essential oils with aroma therapeutic values seems to be an emerging tool to combat this vector.
