Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of silver nanoparticles using leaves of Catharanthus roseus Linn. G. Don and their antiplasmodial activities.

TL;DR: The leaves of C. roseus can be good source for synthesis of silver nanoparticle which shows antiplasmodial activity against P. falciparum and the important outcome of the study will be the development of value added products from medicinal plants C.roseus for biomedical and nanotechnology based industries.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of neem limonoids on the malaria vector Anopheles stephensi Liston (Diptera: Culicidae).

TL;DR: Azadirachtin was the most potent in all experiments and produced almost 100% larval mortality at 1 ppm concentration, and first to third larval instars were more susceptible to the neem limonoids.
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?

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.
