Paperback / softback
Description
The objective of this study was to determine the chemical components, toxicity, antioxidant potential and larvicidal activity of the essential oil of Aniba rosaeodora Ducke against Aedes aegypti larvae.
The main chemical component found in the EO of A. rosaeodora was -linalool 63.16%, being considered very promising for pharmaceutical synthesis.
In the toxicity test, the LC50 varied from 582 mg L-1 to 282 mgL-1 and was classified as non-toxic.
The EO showed larvicidal activity with LC50 of 41.07 mgL-1 and relevant antioxidant activity.
According to the results found, it was possible to evaluate that the EO analyzed is composed of substances that have a good larvicidal effect compared to Aedes aegypti, which encourages its application potential.
