Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the insecticidal properties of essential oils from Cymbopogon citratus and Hyptis suaveolens against Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes, which are resistant to synthetic insecticides.
- The oils were extracted, analyzed for their chemical composition, and tested for efficacy, revealing that co-distilled oil showed higher insecticidal activity compared to mixtures of pure oils.
- Results indicated that co-distilled essential oil primarily contains piperitone and 1,8-cineole, leading to significant mortality rates in mosquito populations, particularly in insecticide-resistant strains.
