چکیده
In this study, we synthesized and characterized (UV–vis, XRD, FTIR, SEM, TEM, AFM) Trewia nudiflora-assisted silver nanoparticles (Tn-AgNPs). The toxicity of T. nudiflora leaf aqueous extract Tn-AgNPs was tested against Anopheles stephensi, Aedes aegypti, Culex quinquefasciatus larvae its LC50 values were 121.82/16.69, 130.51/18.11, 142.38/19.53 μg mL–1, respectively. Moreover, the biotoxicity analyzed aquatic non-target fauna Anisops bouvieri, Diplonychus indicus, Gambusia affinis. 1064.66–26,537.05 mL–1. Thus, significantly controlled mosquito with less toxic effects on fauna.

متن کاملToxicity of Silver Nanoparticles in Aquatic Ecosystems: Salinity as the Main Cause in Reducing Toxicity
Background: In recent years, silver nanoparticles due to their antimicrobial properties, have formed about 56% of nanoparticles global production. Since the released nanoparticles ultimately enter water ecosystems, their maximum toxic effects are magnified in aquatic ecosystems. The aim of this study is to show how salinity can decrease the toxic effects of silver nanoparticles on exposed rai...

Mosquito-borne diseases continue to remain major threats to human and animal health and impediments to socioeconomic development. Increasing mosquito resistance to chemical insecticides is a great public health concern, and new strategies/technologies are necessary to develop the next-generation of vector control tools. We propose to develop a novel method for mosquito control that employs nano...
