A review of effective essential oils and their biologically active compounds to protect the safety of food stored against insect pests

Zahra Moshrefi Zenoozi et al.

Summary: With the increase in population and human demand for crops, chemical insecticides have been widely used to control pests. However, due to their negative impact on the environment and health, researchers have explored natural alternatives such as insecticides derived from essential oils and plant extracts. Compounds found in these extracts, such as 1-8 cineole, thymol, eugenol, limonene, carvacrol, and terpenes, have shown effective biological activity against a wide range of insects. Aromatic plants, which contain high concentrations of biologically active substances, have been found to have a significant impact on food pests. The secretion of aldehydes by plants has also shown potential for insect control, although further research is needed. Overall, natural and safe insecticides can be produced by extracting bioactive materials from plants.

In vivo and In vitro Anti-hydatidosis Effect of Garlic: A Systematic Review

Pegah Shakib et al.

Summary: This systematic review study examined the effect of garlic on hydatid cyst in vivo and in vitro. The results showed that garlic has a mild to potent effect on hydatidosis, with a more considerable effect observed in vitro. Garlic extract can be used as an alternative or complementary treatment for reducing the dose of current drugs.

In vitro potential effect of Pipper longum methanolic extract against protoscolices of hydatid cysts

Kourosh Cheraghipour et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the efficacy of methanolic extract of P. longum against protoscolices of hydatid cyst in vitro, showing that 50 mg/ml concentration had the highest lethality. The IC50 value was found to be about 20 mg/ml after 60 minutes of exposure to PLM extract. Valuable findings were obtained for the first time about the scolicidal activity of P. longum, indicating the need for further studies in this field.
