Comparative biochemical effects of seeds extract Cerbera manghas and leaves Carica papaya the vector of Aedes aegypti mosquitos
The research aims to determine the toxicity of sea mango (Cerbera mangas) seeds extract and Papaya (Carica papaya) leaves in controlling the vector of Aedes aegypti mosquitos. The experiment was conducted with 600 adult Aedes aegypti mosquitos being 3–5 days old. Mortality was recorded 24 h post-treatment, while spray effect toxicity of adult mosquitoes was recorded at 3 min intervals for 20 min. The value of LC50 sea mango seeds extract got 1.995% (19.950 ppm) and LC95 of 23.659 (236.590 ppm), while that of the papaya leaves was 3.168% (31.680 ppm) in 100 ml of distilled water and 122.202% (1222.020 ppm) in 100 ml distilled water, respectively. The sea mango seeds extract showed a significant value of 0.001 (p < 0.05). Amongst two groups substantial differences in toxicity were observed besides there were significantly differences between each concentration of sea mango seeds extract toward Aedes aegypti mosquitos’ death
