摘要: This study explores the influence of rosemary, Rosmarinus officinalis (L.) essential oil (EO) on biochemical (acetylcholinesterase, catalase, and glutathione S-transferase), physiological (oxygen consumption), behavioral (open field test, repellency) parameters an important stored product insect: cowpea weevil, Callosobruchus maculatus (F.). R. EO exhibited effective insecticidal action against C. even at relatively low concentrations. LC50 = 15.69 μL/L air, was highly repellent concentrations equal to or above LC25. Statistically significant inhibition in locomotor activity occurred only after acute exposure LC12.5 The oxygen consumption test showed metabolism increase LC50. An observed case all three enzymes examined. presented data provides a potentially valuable resource designing more environmentally friendly safer insecticide agents.
