Insecticidal activity of extracts of on (Lepidoptera: plutellidae) larvae.

is considered the main pest of cabbage in Brazil and the world, causing damage of up to 100%. Thus, this study evaluated the insecticidal activity of extracts obtained from the fruits, seeds, bark, leaves, and flowers of against the diamondback moth, larvae. The seed extract showed the highest mortality (97.

In Vivo and in Silico Trypanocidal Activity Evaluation of (-)-Cubebin Encapsulated in PLGA Microspheres as Potential Treatment in Acute Phase.

In this study, the trypomastigotes of a Y strain of Trypanosoma cruzi were inoculated intraperitoneally into male BALB/c mice weighing approximately 25 g each, which were divided into groups for evaluation of the trypanocidal activity. For the treatment of experimental groups, encapsulated and unencapsulated (-)-cubebin, Benznidazole, and two groups as negative controls were used. The encapsulated (-)-cubebin showed a 68.
