Impact of Calotropis procera and Annona squamosa Alcoholic Extracts on Phosphatases and Transaminases Activities in Musca domestica
2017
Begum, Nighat | Pandey, Ravi S.
In the present study, the crude ethanol extracts of leaves of Calotropis procera and Annona squamosa have been screened for their insecticidal activities against Musca domestica (a housefly). The third instar larvae of housefly were exposed with two different concentrations of both the extracts for 48 h by dipping method. The effect of extract exposure was studied on the activities of alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, glutamate oxaloacetate transaminases and glutamate pyruvate transaminase. The enzyme inhibitory effect of leaf extract of C. procera was more pronounced than that of A. squamosa. The data indicate that these extracts may be used as the probable candidates for the development of bioinsecticides as safer and economic alternatives to the synthetic insecticides to control the M. domestica population.
