摘要: Abstract In this study, the molluscicidal and antiparasitic activities of divaricatic acid was evaluated, targeting mollusc Biomphalaria glabrata cercariae helminth Schistosoma mansoni. addition, environmental toxicity assessed by bioassay using microcrustacean Artemia salina. Divaricatic showed high against both adult snails (5 μg/mL) embryos (20 μg/mL after 6 h exposure). Similar activity observed in mansoni only a short exposure time (10 μg/mL 30 min The did not show acute test salina at concentrations equal to or below 200 μg/mL. proved be promising substance for elimination snail glabrata, an intermediate host schistosomiasis, as well pathogen, while being non-toxic same concentrations. This is first experimental observation cercaricide acid.
