Once the deposits were dry, five, two to five days old adult female Aedes aegypti were added to each well, and sustained with a 10% sucrose solution in a cotton wool plug. Assessment of knockdown was made one hour after introduction, and mortality was assessed at 24 and 48 hours after introduction. The following compounds gave at least 80% control of Aedes aegypti after 48h: P1 , P2, P3, P5, P6, P7 and P8002E
  • Example B1 1 Activity against Anopheles stephensi (Indian malaria mosquito)
  • Test solutions at an application rate of 200 ppm in ethanol, were applied to 12 well tissue culture plates. Once the deposits were dry, five, two to five day old adult female Anopheles stephensi were added to each well, and sustained with a 10% sucrose solution in a cotton wool plug. Assessment of knockdown was made one hour after introduction, and mortality was assessed at 24 and 48 hours after introduction. The following compounds gave at least 80% control of Anopheles stephensi after 48h and/or 24h: P2, P6, P7, and P8.
