چکیده مقاله:
This study evaluated the activities of crude, acetone and ethanolic extracts of Capsicum frutescens var. minima fruit againstAnopheles gambiae larva. The bioassay was carried out for 24 hours using Anopheles gambiae larva obtained from the wild. TheAnopheles gambiae was identified following standard protocol. Results showed that the mortality rate increased statistically atp<0.05 as the concentration of the plant extracts increased. The ethanolic, acetone and crude extracts had LC50 value of 115.24ppm, 173.16 ppm and 265.19 ppm respectively, being apparently different. The efficacy of the Capsicum frutescens var. minimafruit were in the order aqueous < acetone < ethanol. Based on the findings of this study, there is the need for research to focus onthe isolation and purification of the exact bioactive ingredients that enables Capsicum frutescens var. minima fruit confersinsecticidal potentials
