Identification of plant-derived inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase and glutathione S-transferase in Rhipicephalus microplus and Anopheles stephensi
Key Points
Inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase and glutathione S-transferase were identified from plant sources, showing potential for pest management.
This study highlights the efficacy of plant-derived compounds against critical enzymes in the ticks and mosquito species.
Identified inhibitors can be crucial in developing eco-friendly pest control solutions, reducing reliance on synthetic pesticides.
Supports further exploration of plant-based compounds for managing Rhipicephalus microplus and Anopheles stephensi infestations.
