Effects of Piper hemmendorffii (Piperales: Piperaceae) Essential Oil and Limonene on Modulation of Phase I Detoxifying Enzymes and Acetylcholinesterase Activity of Rhipicephalus microplus (Acari: Ixodidae)
Rhipicephalus microplus is a cattle ectoparasite responsible for economic losses in livestock systems. The present study aimed to evaluate the essential oil (EO) of Piper hemmendorffii and its major constituent, limonene, for their activity against R. microplus larvae. The EO of P. hemmendorffii and its major compound,...
