Abstract

The study was conducted to determine the potential use of Moringa leaf flavonoids as biolarvicides in suppressing the growth of Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae. The design used was a completely randomized design (CRD) with six flavonoid treatments including P0 (0 ppm flavonoids as a negative control), P1 (12.5 ppm flavonoids), P2 (25 ppm flavonoids), P3 (50 ppm flavonoids), P4 ( flavonoids 75 ppm), and P5 (flavonoids 100 ppm). Each treatment was repeated three times. The results of the analysis of diversity (Anova) revealed that Moringa leaf flavonoids had a very significant effect (P = 0.000) on the mortality of A. aegypti mosquito larvae. The administration of 50 ppm flavonoids of Moringa leaf extract caused the mortality of A. aegypti larvae to reach 95%, and at a concentration of 75 ppm, it increased the mortality percentage to 100%. The results of the probit analysis showed that the lethal concentration 50 (LC50) was achieved at a concentration of 7.96 ppm with exposure for 24 hours, while the lethal concentration-time 50 (LT50) at a concentration of 75 ppm was achieved in a shorter time (2.08 hours).  Keywords: flavonoids, moringa leaf, Aedes aegypti, biolarvacide
