Overview

Randomized trial demonstrates effective degradation of dyes and larvicidal activity against Aedes larvae, suggesting eco-friendly applications.

Key Points

  • This research aims to explore the effectiveness of Mg–Zn@HA-AC nanocomposites in degrading synthetic dyes and controlling mosquito larvae.
  • Synthesis of Mg–Zn@HA-AC via green co-precipitation method.
  • Assessment of dye degradation under natural sunlight over 180 minutes.
  • Evaluation of larvicidal activity against Aedes aegypti with calculated LC50 value.
  • Achieved 76.47% degradation of methylene blue and 73.76% degradation of methyl orange under sunlight.
  • Demonstrated pseudo-first-order kinetics with R2 ≥ 0.97 for photodegradation.
  • Exhibited larvicidal activity against Aedes aegypti larvae with an LC50 value of 76.9 μg/mL.
