Article Synopsis
- Dengue fever is a global health issue that researchers are trying to control by targeting the Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae, which spread the disease.
- The study investigates the effects of commercial eugenol and piperine on these larvae, focusing on changes in detoxifying enzymes and the midgut's structure after exposure.
- Results showed that piperine was more effective than eugenol in killing the larvae, leading to significant changes in enzyme activity and visible damage to the larvae’s digestive system.
