Abstract Several studies searching for methods to control Rhipicephalus sanguineus s.l., (dog tick) infestations have been developed aiming minimize the damages caused by these ectoparasites hosts and environment, which is harmed indiscriminate use of toxic acaricide products. In this scenario, neem oil has used as a natural alternative against ticks, once chemical repellent properties interferes in growth regulation ectoparasites, inhibiting ecdysis. The present study evaluated effects...
Studies seeking control methods for infestation of Riphicephalus sanguineus sensu lato (s.l.) ticks (dog ticks) have been carried out in order to minimize damage both the tick's hosts and environment, latter due misuse acaricide products. In this regard, carvacrol has used as a natural alternative against it displays several properties including acaricidal. context, present study aimed evaluate ultramorphology morphohistochemistry integument semi-engorged R. s.l. females exposed different...
Ticks are vectors for several pathogens, including bacteria belonging to the Rickettsia genus, such as rickettsii and parkeri, causative agents of spotted fever. The aim present study was investigate tick species richness rickettsial associated with wild birds captured in Humaita Forest Reserve, Acre, Western Amazon region. Wild were ornithological nets visual inspection purpose collecting ticks, which identified through morphological analyses molecular tests genes (12S rDNA, 16S gltA, ompA,...
The Cayenne tick, Amblyomma cajennense (Fabricius, 1787) (Ixodida: Ixodidae), parasitizes a range of vertebrate hosts, including humans, accidentally. Infestation by this species has important implications for public health, given that these ticks habitually bite humans and may act as the vectors several pathogens. Here, we present detailed case human parasitism A. provide first record occurrence in state Acre, Brazil.
The present study investigated the effects of castor oil ricinoleic acid through analysis blood biochemical parameters and liver morphology female rabbits (animal model). results Bioassay 1 2 showed that reference indexes hepatic enzymes alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transferase, alanine aminotransferase were not significantly altered. However, enzyme aspartate tested in presented alterations, suggesting a hepatotoxic effect esters. morphological histological data fed with ester-added...
O uso de óleos essenciais no combate ao Aedes aegypti tem sido ferramenta promissora visto que não causa danos meio ambiente. objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a composição química e atividade larvicida do óleo essencial citronela (Cymbopogon nardus) controle aegypti, além da determinação concentração letal média (CL50). A Cromatografia Gasosa acoplada à Espectrometria Massas (CG/EM), possibilitou identificar 94,65% amostra, em os compostos majoritários foram: Citronelal (27,62%), Geraniol...
Abstract The present study verified the efficacy of a dichloromethane Acmella oleracea (L.) R. K. Jansen extract against semi-engorged sanguineus s. l. female ticks and effects different concentrations on germ cells midgut epithelium these ectoparasites through morphological histological analyses. In vitro bioassays were performed (adult immersion test). For cytotoxic evaluations, females allocated into five groups. findings indicate that A. was highly efficient at higher than 10 mg/mL. best...
The Rhipicephalus sanguineus is considered a species of medical and veterinary importance. feeding process these animals occurs due to the combined action their mouthparts saliva produced by salivary glands, vital organs for biological success ticks. In addition, glands act as storage sites pathogens transmitted host through inoculation saliva. this sense, present study had objective analyze behavior male Wistar rat hepatic cells submitted in vivo application gland extract (SGE) obtained...
