Perspectives for the use of plant extracts to control the cattle tick Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus

Abstract: The evolution of resistance of Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus to synthetic acaricides has given rise to the need for new scientific investigations on alternative ways to control this tick. In this regard, various studies on plants have been developed in an attempt to find extracts with acaricidal properties. Evaluations on plant extracts for controlling R. (B.) microplus have grown intensely over the last decade. There are many advantages from using plant extracts: for example, they can be used in organic… Show more

“…Currently, several experimental studies have been assessing the anti-parasitic activity of medicinal plants (BORGES et al, 2011;DOMINGUES et al, 2013;LIMA et al, 2014). However, few plant extracts or compounds are produced on an industrial scale, which would enable their use for the control of ticks in the field.…”

“…Discorrendo sobre as perspectivas para o uso de extratos de plantas para o controle do carrapato de bovinos Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus, Borges et al (2011) atentam que estudos in vitro de extratos de plantas têm apresentado resultados promissores, mas a maioria destes extratos não têm sido testada em animais para validar estes resultados. Esses mesmos autores consideram que dificuldades para preparar formulações apropriadas, diferenças na composição química de plantas de uma mesma espécie devido a fatores intrínsecos e extrínsecos e informações esparsas sobre os princípios ativos são entraves que precisam ser solucionados visando o desenvolvimento deste campo de pesquisa.…”

“…Além disso, os compostos bioativos devem atender os critérios de eficácia; de toxidade mínima ou inexistente para animais silvestres, domésticos e pessoas; de bom poder residual; economicamente viável; de fácil manuseio e com pequeno período de carência para consumo de carnes e leite (Borges et al, 2011).…”

“…(B.) microplus larvae and engorged females (BORGES et al, 2011), but few trials of these agents have been conducted in naturally or experimentally infested animals. Although several products from the neem plant, primarily oil, seed cake and ground dry leaf, are marketed as agents for the control of ectoand endoparasites in ruminants, there are no license of the use of herbal drugs against bovine endo-and ectoparasites in Brazil.…”
