“…The Cu (II) ion is a bioactive metal and essential micronutrientwith a narrow range of biological toxicity that, coordinated with ligands, is transported to the intracellular environment and causes in situ oxidative stress reactions with the production of free radicals and oxidant species (ROS), as well as disorganization of the peritrophic matrix and destruction of the intestinal microvilli of mosquito larvae (Arruda et al 2010, Gopinathan and Arumugham 2014, Nardeli et al 2014, Gaban et al 2015. In addition, it is a powerful antimicrobial agent that if used as a contact surface for metal alloys, inactivates microorganisms such as Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus (Neciosup et al 2015).…”

Control strategies using insecticides are sometimes ineffective due to the resistance of the insect vectors.In this scenario new products must be proposed for the control of insect vectors.The complexes L-aspartate Cu (II) and L-glutamate-Cu (II) complexes were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, visible ultraviolet, infrared spectroscopy and potentiometric titration. The toxicity of these complexes was analyzed in Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) larvae and Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. The interaction between the ligands and the amino acid balance and the distribution of the species as a function of pH were discussed. The lethal concentration median (LC 50 ) for Ae. aegypti larvae were: L-glutamic acidCu (
