“…The concentrations of essential oils from the rainy (REO), flowering (FEO), and dry (DEO) periods were 1.7%, 2.72%, and 1.2%, respectively. A previous study, conducted in the city of Crato, Ceará, obtained a yield 0.6%, lower than found in this study, from fresh leaves collected in the rainy season, whereas other studies with dried leaves of L. grata found similar yields to this study (1.9%, 2.6%, and 2.8%) [19,25,28].…”

Insect resistance and environmental pollution are among the drawbacks of continuous use of synthetic insecticides against the vectors of dengue, Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. The objective of this study was to analyze the composition of the essential oil of Lippia grata Schauer collected from plants, in three periods of the year, to compare the larvicidal activity and enzymatic inhibition of the dengue vectors. The oilsanalyzed by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS), presented thymol and 1,8-cineole, as the main constituents, in all three periods. This composition was different from that found in previous studies of the species from different places, thus, suggesting a new chemotype of Lippia grata. Larvicidal tests were performed at concentrations of 100, 75, 50, 25, and 12.5 μg.mL−1 and the essential oil from the rainy season showed the best results, with LC50 of 22.79 μg.mL−1 and 35.36 μg.mL−1 against Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus, respectively; this result was better than other reports. In the rainy period, however, there was a greater variety of components, which led to a better larvicidal effect, possibly due to synergistic action with minor constituents. Total proteins, amylases, and acetylcholinesterase of both species were inhibited by the oils.

“…Hence, it is necessary to reduce the side effects of these chemotherapy treatments to maintain the sustainability of fish farming (Martinez-Porchas & Martinez-Cordova, 2012). The use of essential oils and their bioactive compounds has been a viable alternative to control and treatment diseases caused by monogeneans of some fish species (Barriga et al, 2020;Doan et al, 2020;Tavares-Dias, 2018).…”

“…Given that these phytotherapics generally have less toxic effects on fish (Souza et al, 2019) and have anthelmintic efficacy against different monogenean species ( Barriga et al, 2020;Boijink et al, 2016;Morales-Serna et al, 2019;Tavares-Dias, 2018), its use has been recommended. However, some species of essential oils like Alpinia zerumbet Burt & Smith have not yet been tested against monogeneans.…”

The world population is estimated to reach close to 10 billion inhabitants by 2050, thus increasing the global demand for energy, drinking water and food (ONU, 2019). Given this scenario and the decline of natural fish stocks, aquaculture has been the subject of rapid development. Aquaculture has grown faster than other major food production sectors as it contributes to the supply of animal protein of high biological value for human consumption, job creation and income, thereby boosting the economic development of several countries (FAO, 2018).However, aquaculture activities around the world have suffered from outbreaks of parasitic diseases, which cause losses in production and affect profitability and sustainability (Assefa & Abunna, 2018).Losses in aquaculture caused by parasitic diseases are estimated at US $ 1.05-9.58 billion/years (Shinn et al., 2015). Losses from parasitic diseases are also attributed to stressful handling conditions, high stocking densities and inadequate water quality during the cultivation.Parasitic diseases in fish farming include those caused by monogeneans, which are ectoparasites with simple and direct life cycle.These ectoparasites can cause significant losses in farmed fish for

“…In shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei), Parodi et al (2012) found that 400 and 600 mg/L L. alba essential oil for animals in the postlarval and subadult stages, respectively, presented a decrease in oxidative stress and promoted an anaesthetic effect. Barriga et al (2020) investigated the efficacy of Lippia grata essential oil (the major bioactive compound was carvacrol, 48.12%) against monogeneans of C. macropomum and its haematological effects after immersion baths. They found that 700 mg/L of the essential oil in the therapeutic showed an efficacy of 95.1% against monogeneans and caused a decrease in haemoglobin, whereas control fish showed a reduction in the mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration.…”

“…To prevent such adverse effects, the use of medicinal plant derivatives has increased as an alternative to veterinary drugs since they are known for their safety, low toxicity and minimal environmental impact Zhu, 2020). Studies on the subject have encouraged this alternative, and research on new natural components has also received attention (Barriga et al, 2020;. Essential oils are widely targeted for their properties, such as antimicrobial, antiparasitic, insecticidal and repellent actions, among other therapeutic applications on which studies have been based (Elumalai et al, 2020;Sutili et al, 2018).…”

Fish consumption has increased substantially in recent years, and to maintain this sector's expansion, sustainable aquaculture development with adequate measures of quality, sanitation and good management practices is important (FAO, 2020). However, as intensive husbandry systems are implemented, there are health barriers (such as epizootics) that require interventions through therapeutic products . Thus, the use of therapeutics in aquaculture, especially antibiotics, has increased. However, there are many concerns over its effects on the surrounding ecosystems and global health (Liu et al., 2017).Several stress factors, such as sudden temperature variations, water quality and nutrition, handling and high density of organisms in a limited space, can increase their susceptibility to pathogens by for example impairing fish immune defences (Pulkkinen et al., 2010;. To avoid economic losses, many producers opt to use veterinary drugs, disinfectants and other chemical compounds for disease prevention and treatment (Liu et al., 2017). However, despite the many side effects xenobiotics might have in the environment, many countries still lack appropriate use regulations and control (FDA, 2020).Undue administration of chemotherapeutic agents may pose toxic risks to the animals concerned and to manipulators, consumers and nontarget organisms (Rico & Brink, 2014).
