Research paper thumbnail of Role of ornamental fishes to control Aedes albopictus larvae population

Implementing traditional methods such as insecticides and mosquito repellents are harmful to the environment and to human health. In the present study, the rate at which Aedes albopictus larvae were consumed as well as the other feeding preferences of five ornamental fishes (Guppy, Molly fish, Betta fish, Gold fish, and Angel fish) were noted and compared. While Molly fish, Fighter, and Guppy considerably prefer Aedes albopictus larvae over the other food item, Gold fish and Angel fish exhibit good efficacy toward both types of food. In the last decade of little works (use of ornamental fish) have been done to control Aedes mosquito population. Therefore, a preliminary attempt has been undertaken to include ornamental fishes as vector controlling agent.

However, controlling their larvae by using conventional techniques like insecticides, mosquito repellents are hazardous for human health and environment. Hence, it is recommended to biologically control the mosquito larvae through ornamental fish as they are eco-friendly and cost effective. In the present study, consumption rate of Aedes aegypti larvae and other food preference of six fishes (Angel fish, Betta fish, Gold fish, Red swordtail, Molly fish and Guppy) have been observed and a comparative study has been recorded. Angel fish and Gold fish show good efficacy towards all three types of food whereas Molly fish, Fighter and Guppy exhibit good efficacy towards Aedes aegypti larvae than the rest two food items, only Red swordtail showed significant deviation in results. So, in near future these fishes can be considered as effective biological agents for controlling Aedes aegypti Larvae.

Sensitization of cancer cells to conventional drugs using multi-target agents that block survival and oncogenic pathways, alone or in combination, is an emerging strategy to overcome drug resistance. Plants are natural reservoirs of novel compounds and provide a promising therapeutic approach for treatment of cancer. Phytochemicals are viewed as appropriate possibility for anticancer medication advancements due to their pleiotropic activities on track occasions with numerous habits. These phytochemicals frequently act by means of regulating molecular pathways which are embroiled in development and dissemination of cancer. The particular strategies in cancer prevention involves tracking of anti-carcinogenic agents, carcinogen inactivation, repr...
