“…Phenolic compound such as tannins and flavonoids present in guava possess toxin which are found to be anti-microbial, insecticidal and anti-estrogenic [18]. Some flavonoids in guava can kill many bacterial strains, reduce important viral enzymes, like reverse transcriptase and protease, and kill some pathogenic protozoans [19]. Saponin which is also an active compound in guava and annatto can cause intercalation in the cell membranes of parasite due to its hydrophobic action resulting to formation of pores.…”

This study was conducted in order to evaluate the potential of different plant extracts (guava Psidiumguajava, annatto Bixaorellana, red sage Lantana camara and jambolanSyzygiumcumini) against Trichodinaspp. of Nile tilapia fingerlings.Initial parasite abundance and prevalence was compared after two-day treatment using a commercial antiparasitic drug and plant extracts (50 mg/L). Percent prevalences of Trichodina spp. in the gills, skin and fins remained very high (93.30 to 100.00%) after two days treatment. Extracts from annatto (128.1±97.8), red sage (178.4±209.5), guava (52.3±75.9) and jambolan (56.1±71.7), and the commercial anti-parasitic drug (163.7±101.5) were significantly effective in reducing the abundance of Trichodina spp. in the gills of Nile tilapia fingerlings as compared to the initial abundance(215.2±190.1). Except jambolan (26.9±34.8), plant extracts from guava (9.3±10.1), annatto (16.2±12.3) and red sage (16.8±21.4) were also found effective in decreasing the initial abundance (25.7±21.9) of skin and fins Trichodina spp. Commercial anti-parasitic drug was not successful in controlling the parasite in the skin and fins of tilapia fingerlings.
