Larvicidal Activity of Bacillus laterosporus Against Mosquitoes
In present study Bacillus laterosporus isolated from a commercial formulation showed larvicidal activity against second instar larvae of Aedies aegypti, Anophles stephense and Culex qunquefasciatus. The % mortality without heat treatment was 37.34 against Anophles and 18.67 against Culex. The toxin was heat stable and its toxicity increased with inoculum size and incubation time. The study reve...
متن کاملLarvicidal and IGR activity of extract of Tanzanian plants against malaria vector mosquitoes.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES This paper reports the larvicidal activity of seventeen Tanzanian plant species against the malaria vector, Anopheles gambiae s.s. Giles larvae. Some of the plants are used traditionally as sources of insecticidal materials. METHODS The crude extracts from the leaves, stem and root barks of the investigated plants were obtained by solvent extraction and then bio-assaye...
متن کاملAntinociceptive activity of Ricinus communis L. leaves.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the antinociceptive activity of the methanol extract of Ricinus communis leaves (MRCL). METHODS Antinociceptive activity was evaluated using acetic acid induced writhing test, formalin induced paw licking and tail immersion method in mice at doses of 100, 125 and 150 mg/kg bw. RESULTS The results indicated that MRCL exhibited considerable antinociceptive activity again...
