Abstract
a peer-reviewed, open access online international journal which publishes original research papers. The journal welcomes submission from scholars and experts for possible publication from all over the world. The scope of the journal includes: Pharmaceutical research, chemistry and biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds, biological evaluation of crude extracts, ethnomedicine, traditional and complementary medicine, ethnopharmacology, biomedical research, Biotechnology, Evaluation of natural substances of land and sea and of plants, microbes and animals, pharmacognosy, bioavailability, clinical, pharmacological, toxicological studies and pharmacokinetics of phytochemicals, Isolation and characterization of compounds, structure elucidation, synthesis and experimental biosynthesis of natural Product as well as developments of methods in these areas are welcomed in the journal.
Highlights
Stored food can be invaded by insects, fungi and rodents.[1]
We propose to investigate the chemical profile of essential oils extracted from syzygium aromaticum and their insecticidal activity in Callosobruchus maculatus
Analysis of the chemical composition of syzygium aromaticum Essential oil (EO) revealed the presence of 80.26% Eugenol, 9.62 % Eugenyl acetate, 6.74 % β-Caryophyllene and 1.14% CHumulene
Summary
Stored food can be invaded by insects, fungi and rodents.[1]. Damage caused by insects is the most significant. The chickpea seeds (Cicer arietinum) are heavily assaulted by Callosobruchus maculatus during storage This species is a cosmopolitan food seed parasite in many parts of Africa, where a large part of the rural population lives on vegetable crops. This pest causes substantial harm and results in a loss of quality and quantity of stored legumes, in particular a degradation of its ability of germination.[4,5] Several control methods have been used to control these species, the first essays were conducted by chemical products. We propose to investigate the chemical profile of essential oils extracted from syzygium aromaticum and their insecticidal activity in Callosobruchus maculatus
