The book "Mosquitocidal Activities of Abrus Extracts" by T. Mathivanan focuses on the efficacy of Abrus precatorius Linn (Fabaceae) extracts and synthesized silver nanoparticles against dengue vector Aedes aegypti Linn, malarial vector Anopheles stephensi Liston, and filarial vector Culex quinquefasciatus Say, which are major culprits in spreading vector-borne diseases. The book presents a detailed study on the mosquitocidal activity of Abrus extracts and silver nanoparticles, which can potentially be used as an alternative to synthetic insecticides. The book starts with an introduction to the importance of controlling mosquito vectors and the need for eco-friendly mosquitocidal agents. The author then presents a comprehensive review of the literature on the mosquitocidal activity of plant extracts and synthesized nanoparticles. The experimental section covers the synthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles and the preparation of Abrus extract. The author then reports the results of mosquitocidal activity assays, including larvicidal and adulticidal assays. The book also includes chapters on the mode of action of the mosquitocidal agents and their impact on non-target organisms. The author concludes the book with a discussion on the potential use of Abrus extracts and synthesized silver nanoparticles as eco-friendly and sustainable mosquitocidal agents. Overall, this book is a valuable resource for researchers, scientists, and policymakers who are interested in developing eco-friendly and sustainable mosquito control strategies.
