Chemical constituents and larvicide potential against Aedes aegypti of the esse...
Pereira, Ana Patrícia Matos; Martins, Thércia Gabrielle Teixeira; Araújo Neto, Ari Pereira de; Conceição , Carlos Eduardo PereiraEssential oils extracted from medicinal plants have been shown to be an alternative in the search for natural larvicides. Thus, the present study aimed to evaluate the larvicidal activity of essential oil extracted from the leaves of Origanum vulgare L. leaves. The essential oil was extracted by hydrodistillation at 100°C for 3 h, with chemical characterization through Gas Chromatography coupled to mass spectro...

Martins, Thércia Gabrielle Teixeira; Pereira , Ana Patrícia Matos; Rosa, Paulo Victor Serra; Silveira, Leila da SilvaThis study evaluated the molluscicidal activity in front of the snail transmitting the schistosomes (Biomphalaria glabrata) of the essential oil of Origanum vulgare. The plant material was collected in the municipality of São Luis (MA). The essential oil was extracted by hydrodistillation at 100° C for 3h, with chemical characterization through Gas Chromatography coupled to Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). For mollus...
