The LD50 value of S. lavandulifolia oil was 3.66, 3.37, and 5.04 μg/cm³, respectively, in the vapor bioassay aga...
The antimicrobial effects of 7,8-dihydroxy-6-methoxycoumarin and 7-hydroxy-6-methoxycoumarin isolated from Fraxinus rhynchophylla bark and of their structural analogues were determined in an attempt to develop natural antimicrobial agents against the foodborne pathogens Escherichia coli, Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus intermedius, and Listeria mon...
The potential abilities of 3-methylbenzaldehyde derived from Myosotis arvensis oil and its structural analogues to act as new acaricide and mite kit (mite color deformation) against Tyrophagus putrescentiae (Schrank) were evaluated in the present study. Based on the LD50 values, 2,4,5-trimethylbenzaldehyde (0.78 μg/cm³) had highest vapor action aga...
Inhibition of ?-amylase and ?-glucosidase, advanced glycation end products (AGEs) formation, and oxidative stress by isolated active constituents of Osmanthus fragrans flowers (9,12-octadecadienoic acid and 4-(2,6,6-trimethyl-1-cyclohexenyl)-3-buten-2-one) and their structural analogues were evaluated. 9,12-Octadecadienoic acid was 10.02 and 22.21...
Agricultural insects and stored-product insects are influenced by luminance intensities, exposure times, and wavelengths of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Based on the phototactic behaviors of the agricultural insects, green or blue LEDs are most attractive for Bemisia tabaci, Trialeurodes vaporariorum, Myzus persicae, Liriomyza trifolii, Spodoptera...
The insecticidal toxicities of five essential oils against Pochazia shantungensis adults and nymphs, newly recorded pests, were evaluated. The LC50 values of Thymus vulgaris, Ruta graveolens, Citrus aurantium, Leptospermum petersonii and Achillea millefolium oils were recorded as 57.48, 84.44, 92.58, 113.26 and 125.78 mg/L, respectively, against P....
Phototactic behavioral responses of the Indian meal moth, Plodia interpunctella (Hübner), adults were determined to different light-emitting diodes (LEDs) of seven wavelengths, and their behavioral responses were compared to that using a commercial luring lamp (BLB) under laboratory conditions. Based on the attractive responses under optimal light...
