LYRICS FOR AEDES AEGYPTI FROM SEED ALMOND FAT

摘要

AEDES AEGYPTI LARVICIDE FROM SEED ALMOND FAT This patent relates to a larvicide derived from seed almond fat, in particular mango kernel (mangifera indica or magifera sp.). Larvicide was obtained by solvent extraction and distillation, the lipids present are predominantly saturated, which gives it a solid character. Vegetable fat, derived from mango kernel almonds, is characterized by toxicity to dengue and yellow fever mosquito larvae in the L4 larval development stage, providing 22, 47, 67 and 83% of larval mortality in the larval concentrations. 500, 800, 900 and 1100 ppm, respectively and within 48 h. Based on the linear model obtained from the data presented, it was calculated that at the larval stage of development, 100% mortality of the larvae occurs at a concentration of 1259 ppm. Fat is diluted in water and the amounts used in dilutions are minimal and justify its use as a natural larvicide, with great advantages (abundance, ease of preparation, lower toxicity to man, etc.) over commercial insecticides.
