Repellent and adulticidal effect of essential oils mixtures on Aedes aegypti females

Potensi Aromaterapi Jeruk Purut (Citrus hystrix DC.) sebagai Adultisida terhadap Aedes aegypti (Linn.) Dewasa

“…Berdasarkan penelitian terdahulu diketahui bahwa kombinasi antara minyak atsiri dari beberapa bahan alam memiliki toksisitas lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan insektisida kimia. 40,41 Penelitian lainnya menunjukkan bahwa efek mortalitas nyamuk yang ditimbulkan paska aplikasi minyak atsiri akan bergantung pada konsentrasi yang diberikan. Efek yang ditimbulkan juga bervariasi, beberapa minyak atsiri akan menimbulkan efek mortalitas pada dosis yang lebih tinggi, sedangkan minyak atsiri lainnya memberikan efek mortalitas pada dosis rendah sebagaimana ditunjukkan pada penelitian ini.…”

“…42 Minyak atsiri bahan alam juga potensial sebagai pengganti insektisida kimia yang telah resisten baik secara individu maupun kombinasi. 41,43,44 Potensi minyak atsiri sebagai adultsida dapat ditingkatkan dengan mengkombinasikannya dengan insektisida kimia seperti malation. 45 Efek mortalitas nyamuk tidak hanya dipengaruhi oleh faktor kandungan senyawa maupun konsentrasi, akan tetapi juga oleh durasi paparan.…”

Comparative study of three herbal formulations against dengue vectors Aedes aegypti

“…Natural plant extracts are easily obtainable due to their prevalence and availability in several forms (such as crude, gels, and essential oils) and their lower cost than synthetic products ( Fazal et al, 2013 , Hazarika et al, 2018 , Mahyoub, 2021 ). Since ancient times, certain essential oil extracts have been used as repellents for adult mosquitoes when applied to the skin in human communities ( Alavez-Rosas et al, 2022 , Ansari et al, 2000 , El-Sheikh et al, 2016 , Lee, 2018 , Sutthanont et al, 2022 ). However, several recent studies have evaluated the effectiveness of essential oils as insecticides and larvicides ( Alavez-Rosas et al, 2022 , Ansari et al, 2000 , Asadollahi et al, 2019 , Barazandeh, 2002 , Chantraine et al, 1998 , Dias and Moraes, 2014 , El-Akhal et al, 2021 , Fazal et al, 2013 , Fekadu et al, 2009 , Fernandez et al, 2018 , Hazarika et al, 2018 , Lavor et al, 2012 , Magalhães et al, 2010 , Manimaran et al, 2012 , de Martins, 2019 , Pavela, 2009 , Smigielski et al, 2018 , Sutthanont et al, 2019 , Sutthanont et al, 2022 ).…”

Besides, the crude natural extracts derived from marine and terrestrial plants were tested as larvicidal ( Al-Rashidi et al, 2022 , Al-Hakimi et al, 2022 , Alyaha et al, 2018 , Alyahya et al, 2021 , Barnawi et al, 2019 , El-Sheikh et al, 2016 , Mahyoub et al, 2016a , Mahyoub et al, 2016b , Mahyoub, 2019 , Mahyoub et al, 2017 ).…”

How to repel a killer; chemical identification and effective repellent activity of commercial essential oils against kissing bugs

“…The use of essential oils as repellents is highly important for public health, offering a new perspective in the control of arthropod vectors (e.g., triatomines, which are directly linked to the spread Chagas disease) (Benelli & Pavela, 2018). Since the repellent effect of essential oils be caused by synergistic effects of its metabolites, we could expect a higher synergistic repellence in blends of essential oils of multiple plant species resulting in greater repellence than that in individual essential oils (Alavez‐Rosas et al, 2022; Benelli & Pavela, 2018).…”
