Chemical and biological study of essential oil of Ferulago macrocarpa [Fenzi] Boiss

The constituents of essential oil of Ferulago macrocarpa were studied by GC and CC-Mass. The major components were bornyl acetate [45.6%] and borneol [17.26%]. The essential oil presents interesting activity against the larvae of Culex pipiens and Anopheles stephensi. LD[50] of essential oil of Ferulago macrocarpa on larvae showed that Culex were more sensible
