Potential Extract Ethanol Citrus Amblycarpa as a Bioinsecticide Against Aedes Aegypti Larvae

Introduction: Utilization of compounds active plant into an alternative control of mosquito when it and a front for a more hospitable environment and do not cause interference health. Kuit Limau Plant (Citrus amblycarpa) is local citrus from South Kalimantan which has bioinsecticide potential which can be used in mosquito control. Objective: This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the ethanol extract of the Peel and Citrus amblycarpa leaves as natural larvicides of Aedes aegypti larvae. Methods: An experimental study with a completely randomized design of Citrus amblycarpa ethanol extract (500, 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 ppm). The positive control used abate and the negative control used distilled water and tween 80. The number of repetitions of each concentration was three times with 25 larvae in each test glass. Larval mortality was analyzed using probit analysis at a 95% confidence level. Results: Extract Peel requires a time that is shorter (5.3 hours) to kill the larvae of Ae. Aegypti compared with leaf extract (42.8 hours). Is not there a difference significant mortality of larvae in the group leather 4000 ppm with a group of control. Conclusion: The ethanol extract of Citrus amblycarpa rind has potential as a larvicide for Aedes aegypti.
