Animal Model:Mosquito
-
Dosage:78.75 μg/mL
-
Administration:sprayed on the filter papers 8 cm diameter, dried thoroughly and placed at the bottom of conical flask.
-
Result:More potent on C. quinquefasciatus with LC50=3.56 µg/mL.
The effect was similar in both C. riparius and C. quinquefasciatus, however it appeared to show slightly lower mortality in case of A. aegypti.
Effective inhibited larval acetylcholinesterase activity with IC50=27.39 μg/mL.
