Toxicity and molluscicidal activity of the essential oil Pimenta dioica against the snail Biomphalaria glabrata

Abstract: Este trabajo evaluó la toxicidad y el efecto molusquicida del aceite extraído de las hojas de Pimenta dioica contra el caracol Biomphalaria glabrata (Say, 1818). Para esto, el aceite esencial se extrajo cuantitativamente por hidrodestilación. Luego se realizaron cuantificaciones de sus componentes mediante cromatografía de gases acoplada a espectrometría de masas (CG-MS) y se analizaron la toxicidad y la actividad molusquicida, respectivamente, contra Artemia salina y los caracoles Biomphalaria glabrata(Say, 1… Show more

“…In the literature there are other plants that have molluscicidal activity against B. glabrata, however, the effectiveness is in the lowest value of the lethal concentration (LC50). The study of thirteen Solanum species revealed that the extracts of the species S. asperum, S. diamantinese, S. paludosum, S. sisymbriifolium and S. stipulaceum present activity with lethal concentration (LC50) varying from 20 to 50 mg L - 1 48 ; Moringa oleifera Lam seed extracts were active in the lethal concentration, LC50, 419 mg L -1 49 ; extracts from the stems of Melloa quadrivalvis and Tabebuia aurea and whole plants of Adenocalymma comosum, Arrabidaea parviflora, Cuspidaria argentea, and Clytostoma binatum have activity with LC50 concentration varying from 5.2 to 37.5 mg L -1 , being the most active Cuspidaria argentea, LC50 5.2 mg L -1 50 ; the essential oil of Pimenta dioica is active with LC50 18.62 mg L -1 , however the toxicity study showed that it is highly toxic to other organisms 53 . Though, the Ocotea bracteosa essential oil has activity with concentration, LC50 4.6 mg L -1 51 .…”
