Journal ArticleDOI
Cymbopogon citratus-synthesized gold nanoparticles boost the predation efficiency of copepod Mesocyclops aspericornis against malaria and dengue mosquitoes.
Kadarkarai Murugan,Giovanni Benelli,Chellasamy Panneerselvam,Jayapal Subramaniam,Tirupathi Jeyalalitha,Devakumar Dinesh,Marcello Nicoletti,Jiang-Shiou Hwang,Udaiyan Suresh,Pari Madhiyazhagan +9 more
TL;DR: Overall, low doses of AuN may help to boost the control of Anopheles and Aedes larval populations in copepod-based control programs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mosquitocidal and antibacterial activity of green-synthesized silver nanoparticles from Aloe vera extracts: towards an effective tool against the malaria vector Anopheles stephensi?
Devakumar Dinesh,Kadarkarai Murugan,Pari Madhiyazhagan,Chellasamy Panneerselvam,Palanisamy Mahesh Kumar,Marcello Nicoletti,Wei Jiang,Giovanni Benelli,Balamurugan Chandramohan,Udaiyan Suresh +9 more
TL;DR: This study adds knowledge about the use of green synthesis of nanoparticles in medical entomology and parasitology, allowing us to propose A. vera-synthesized silver nanoparticles as effective candidates to develop newer and safer mosquitocidal control tools.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization and biotoxicity of Hypnea musciformis-synthesized silver nanoparticles as potential eco-friendly control tool against Aedes aegypti and Plutella xylostella.
Mathath Roni,Kadarkarai Murugan,Chellasamy Panneerselvam,Jayapal Subramaniam,Marcello Nicoletti,Pari Madhiyazhagan,Devakumar Dinesh,Udaiyan Suresh,Hanem F. Khater,Hui Wei,Angelo Canale,Abdullah A. Alarfaj,Murugan A. Munusamy,Akon Higuchi,Giovanni Benelli +14 more
TL;DR: This study adds knowledge on the toxicity of seaweed borne insecticides and green-synthesized AgNP against arthropods of medical and agricultural importance, allowing us to propose the tested products as effective candidates to develop newer and cheap pest control tools.
Journal ArticleDOI
Green-synthesized silver nanoparticles as a novel control tool against dengue virus (DEN-2) and its primary vector Aedes aegypti
Vasu Sujitha,Kadarkarai Murugan,Manickam Paulpandi,Chellasamy Panneerselvam,Udaiyan Suresh,Mathath Roni,Marcello Nicoletti,Akon Higuchi,Pari Madhiyazhagan,Jayapal Subramaniam,Devakumar Dinesh,Chithravel Vadivalagan,Balamurugan Chandramohan,Abdullah A. Alarfaj,Murugan A. Munusamy,Donald R. Barnard,Giovanni Benelli +16 more
TL;DR: Overall, this research highlighted the concrete potential of green-synthesized AgNP in the fight against dengue and its primary vector A. aegypti and further research on structure–activity relationships of AgNP against other d Dengue serotypes is urgently required.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tackling the growing threat of dengue: Phyllanthus niruri-mediated synthesis of silver nanoparticles and their mosquitocidal properties against the dengue vector Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae).
Udaiyan Suresh,Kadarkarai Murugan,Giovanni Benelli,Marcello Nicoletti,Donald R. Barnard,Chellasamy Panneerselvam,Palanisamy Mahesh Kumar,Jayapal Subramaniam,Devakumar Dinesh,Balamurugan Chandramohan +9 more
TL;DR: Overall, this study highlights that the possibility to employ P. niruri leaf extract and green-synthesized silver nanoparticles in mosquito control programs is concrete, since both are effective at lower doses if compared to synthetic products currently marketed, thus they could be an advantageous alternative to build newer and safer tools against dengue vectors.
