The larvicidalproperty of graphene oxide (GO) and thiourea-reduced graphene oxide (T-rGO)was assessed against Culexquinquefasciatuslarvae. A simple water-soluble material synthesis method was used. The transformation of graphene into graphene oxide was accomplished in a single step. Under mild conditions, grapheneoxidewasdissolved in water to form a solution. Structure, optical, and microstructural features of the synthesized samples wereevaluatedusing a variety of analytical tools to compare the samples. Both GO and RGO, as well as GO, showed strong larvicidal potential when used against the third instar larvae of the Culexquinquefasciatus mosquito, with LC₅₀and LC₉₀values of 1.71 and 5.17 ppm and 1.89 and 5.00 ppm, respectively. As a result, our study showed that all of the GO and T-rGO under investigation create larvicidal compounds that could be employed to support efforts to control mosquito populations. It also offers an alternative method for producing GO and rGO on a big scale, which may be used in the future for a variety of biomedical applications.The binding efficacy of the active compounds against AChE1 was studied using Auto dock and the results were observed to be highly promising.
