The Efficacy of Commercial Aerosol Insecticides to German Cockroaches (Blattella germanica L.) Populations from Two Places in Indonesia
Journal ID : ALS-08-08-2021-5582; Total View : 1048; Author : Resti Rahayu, Vivy Hermana Pratiwi, Anggia Safitri, Robby Jannatan,
Abstract :

Aerosol spray insecticides are widely available in Indonesia's public market to control the German cockroach population, but the reports on their effectiveness are still limited. This study aimed to determine the efficacy of six pyrethroid insecticides in the form of aerosol sprays (By, Ht, Vp, Nm, Mt, and Fm) against field German Cockroaches populations in Indonesia (Palembang and Bukittinggi populations). Five insecticides effectively paralyzed the Bukittinggi population and ineffective to the Palembang population by the knockdown time (KT90) criteria. All aerosol insecticides were ineffective in killing Bukittinggi and Palembang Cockroaches populations by the lethal time (LT90) criteria. The pyrethroid insecticides sold in the public market were no longer effective in killing the German Cockroaches population. The results show a high level of resistance in two German cockroach populations in Indonesia

Phenolic compounds identification, antioxidant activity (in vitro) and acute oral toxicity in wistar rat of the Moroccan Mentha spicata plant
Journal ID : ALS-08-08-2021-5581; Total View : 1044; Author : Hamid El Haoud, Moncef Boufellous, Samir Bikri, Hind Tazougart, L. Aicha Lrhorfi, Rachid Bengueddour,
Abstract :

Spearmint or mint, Mentha spicata a perennial plant of the family Lamiaceae (or Labiaceae, Labiatae), of the genus Mentha, cultivated as an aromatic plant, is a species widely used in traditional medicine for its biological properties attributed mainly to polyphenols. In the context of the valorization of medicinal and aromatic plants of Morocco, during this study, we focused on the phenolic compounds identification, antioxidant activity (in vitro) and acute oral toxicity in wistar rat of the Moroccan Mentha spicata plant collected in the Casablanca region- Settat (benslimane province). The results of the antioxidant activity assay showed that the polyphenol assay shows that the methanolic extract is better than the aqueous extract with respectively 2.14 ± 0.34 GAE/g DW and 0.682 ± 0.07 GAE/g DW. Even for the flavonoids with respectively 2.81 ± 0.38 QE/g DW and 0.79 ± 0.02 QE/g DW, but for tannins the results show that the aqueous extract is better than the methanolic extract with 156.96 ± 69.52 CE/g DW and 95.7 ± 86.26 CE /g DW respectively. It is also concluded that the methanolic extract has a higher activity antioxidant than the aqueous extract with EC50 values of 0.173 ± 0.013 mg/ml and 0.191 ± 0.07 mg/ml, respectively. Regarding the acute oral toxicity in wistar rat, the values revealed that there was a similar range of Lethal dose 50 (LD50) dose values for the two extracts of the plant Mentha spicata, from 5000 to 7500 mg/kg of the body weight of the rats. The determination of the (LD50) of ethanol extracts of Plant of Mentha spicata, showed that from the dose 5000 mg/kg, hypo activity was observed in rats, while for the aqueous extract it is from 10,000 mg/kg that hypo activity appeared. General signs of toxicity due to large doses of this plants extract, which is significant compared to the other parts
