“…The ethanolic extracts of three other species of Piperaceae were tested against the A. aegypti 4 th instar larvae, and the LC50 results were higher than those found for P. nigrum. The results were as follows: P. longum, 2.23 (2.11-2.37); P. ribesoides, 8.13 (7.84-8.42); and P. sarmentosum, 4.06 (3.68-4.43) μg/mL (Chaithong et al, 2006). Figure 2 shows the chromatographic profiles for the crude extracts of P. nigrum and the piperine standard.…”

Amongst other botanical sources, Annona muricata L., Annonaceae, seeds and Piper nigrum L., Piperaceae, fruits are particularly enriched with acetogenins and piperine-related amides, respectively. These crude ethanolic extracts are potent bioactives that can kill Aedes aegypti larvae (dengue fever mosquito). A. muricata displayed a 93.48 μg/mL LC50 and P. nigrum an 1.84 μg/mL LC50. An uncommon pharmacognostical/toxicological approach was used, namely different combinations of both extracts to achieve an improved lethal effect on the larvae. The independence test (χ²) was utilized to evaluate the combination of the two crude extracts. All of the tested combinations behaved synergistically and these novel results were attributed to the completely different biochemical mechanisms of the differentiated chemical substances that were present in the two botanical sources. Besides the two above selected plants, Melia azedarach L., Meliaceae, Origanum vulgare L., Lamiaceae, and Ilex paraguariensis A. St.-Hil., Aquifoliaceae, in order of decreasing toxicity, may also be sought as potential extracts for the sake of synergic combinations.

Laboratory Evaluation of Some Essential Oils against Immature Stages of The Filarial Mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus (Diptera:Culicidae)

The larvicidal activity of four commercially available essential oils were tested on the 4 th larval instar of Culex quinquefasciatus in the laboratory. These were the essential oils of Cinnamomum osmophloeum (cinnamon), Matricharia chamomella (chamomell),Nigella sativa(nigela) and Sesamum indicum (sesame) oils. The toxicity index, LC 50 values, LC 50 values were 26, 32, 82 and 26 ppm for cinnamon, chamomell, nigela and sesame oils, respectively after 48 hrs from treatment. All tested oils, at high concentrations, had high larvicidal toxicity. Furthermore, the increase of concentrations was directly proportional to reduction in pupation rates and adult emergence. Significant decrease in pupation rate was observed by cinnamon oil at 65 ppm. Adult emergence was 100% inhibited in cinnamon oil was used, especially at concentrations 50 and 6were5 ppm. The number of eggs/ female and eggs hatchability were also decreased by the application of all concentration of the tested oils. In addition, the tested plant oils exhibited various morphological abnormalities on larvae, pupae and adult stages The result from this study demonstrated that essential oil of cinnamon was the most potent oil and was the major cause of malformation of both larval and pupal stages.

“…However, the mentioned reports have been developed on Asian species so that it is unable to correlate published results of insecticidal activity with the present findings. Some examples about biological activity of Piper are found published on literature [7][8][23][24][25][26] . Regarding to Piper plants studied here, reports on their biological activity have demonstrated to be almost inexistent.…”

ABSTRACT23 crude ethanolic extracts of Piper plants were analyzed by combining HPLC fingerprints and chemometric methods including principal component analysis (PCA), hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA) and parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC). All statistical analysis were carried out both with and without previous preprocessing by counting with alignment of the fingerprints by correlation optimized warping (COW) and several normalization methods. Normalization processes of autoscaling, range scaling and vast scaling resulted to be the better offering the most relevant information. Both direct two-way methods (PCA and HCA) and HCA after data minimization employing a three-way method (PARAFAC) were demonstrated to be useful in the establishment of chemical composition relationships among Piper samples, and resulting in agreement with phylogenic relationships previously reported in literature to some Piper species.
