“…Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry was used to analyze H. forskaolii chloroform root extract, wherein 102 secondary metabolites belonging to sesquiterpenes, diertepenes, fatty acids and alkane were identified. Of the phytochemical compounds identified caryophyllene and caryophyllene oxide have been reported to exert larvicidal activity 19,20…”

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate larvicidal activity of Hypoestes forskaolii R. Br root extract against 3rd instar Anopheles gambiae , Aedes aegypti , and Culex quinquefasciatus . Methods: A protocol developed by the World Health Organization was adopted, with minor modification using chloroform and methanol extracts with concentrations ranging from 25–750 µg/mL. Results: The H. forskaolii chloroform extract exhibited very high larvicidal activity after 72 hours of exposure, with LC 50 2.0322, 3.8989, 6.0004 μg/mL against A. gambiae, A. aegypti , and C. quinquefasciatus , respectively. Conclusion: The larvicidal activity of H. forskaolii is reported for the first time in this paper. The effectiveness of H. forskaolii chloroform extract warrants further research to develop botanical mosquito repellants from this source.

“…Studies of the essential oils and extracts derived from such plants as Clinopodium gracile [4], Saussurea lappa [5], Toddalia asiatica [6], Inula racemosa [7], Isodon japonicus var. glaucocalyx [8], and many other plants have demonstrated promising larvicidal activities against mosquito vectors. During our mass screening program for new agrochemicals from wild plants and Chinese medicinal herbs, we found that the essential oil of Youngia japonica (L.) DC.…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate the larvicidal activity of the essential oil of Youngia japonica aerial parts against the larvae of Aedes albopictus and to isolate any active compounds from the oil. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analyses revealed the presence of 31 compounds, with menthol (23.53%), α-asarone (21.54%), 1,8-cineole (5.36%), and caryophyllene (4.45%) as the major constituents. Bioactivity-directed chromatographic separation of the oil led to the isolation of menthol and α-asarone as active compounds. The essential oil of Y. japonica exhibited larvicidal activity against the fourth instar larvae of A. albopictus with an LC₅₀ value of 32.45 μg/mL. α-Asarone and menthol possessed larvicidal activity against the fourth instar larvae of A. albopictus with LC₅₀ values of 24.56 μg/mL and 77.97 μg/mL, respectively. The results indicate that the essential oil of Y. japonica aerial parts and the two constituents can be potential sources of natural larvicides.
