Ana Fontenele Urano Carvalho,Vânia Maria Maciel Melo,Afrânio Aragão Craveiro,Maria Iracema L. Machado,Márcia Braga Bantim,Emanuelle Fontenele Rabelo +5 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the essential oil of L. sidoides is promising as larvicide against A. aegypti and could be useful in the search of newer, more selective, and biodegradable larvicidal natural compounds to be used in official combat programs and at home.
Journal ArticleDOI
