Abstract: Nematicidal activity of Melaleuca alternifolia essential oil, commonly known as tea tree oil (TTO), was assayed in vitro against L3 larvae of Anisakis simplex. The results showed a mortality of 100% for concentrations between 7 and 10 μL/mL after 48 h of incubation, obtaining an LD50 value of 4.53 μL/mL after 24 hours and 4.27 μL/mL after 48 hours. Concentration-dependent inhibition of acetylcholinesterase was observed for tea tree essential oil showing inhibition values of 100% at 100 μL/mL. This fact suggest… Show more

“…This study confirms the anisakicidal activity reported for natural plants and spices used for our olive oil aromatization and also for their major compounds (β‐pinene, γ‐terpinene, 1,8‐cineole, p ‐cymene, eugenol, and limonene) . The different types of lesions observed in all dead parasites are related to the different active components, in agreement with the literature .…”

Exaggerated anticipatory anxiety is common in social anxiety disorder (SAD). Neuroimaging studies have revealed altered neural activity in response to social stimuli in SAD, but fewer studies have examined neural activity during anticipation of feared social stimuli in SAD. The current study examined the time course and magnitude of activity in threat processing brain regions during speech anticipation in socially anxious individuals and healthy controls (HC). Method Participants (SAD n = 58; HC n = 16) underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) during which they completed a 90s control anticipation task and 90s speech anticipation task.

“…In our study, the essential oil from O. syriacum was reported as an effective antiparasitic agent in the fight against anisakiasis, as well as a good larvicidal and adulticidal product to manage mosquito populations. The larvicidal activity of certain essential oils on A. simplex has been established [26,27,28,29,30,31,62]. Though other Origanum species have shown antiparasitic activity on A. simplex , O. syriacum seems to be the most promising, as it induces a higher mortality rate of the larvae at lower concentration.…”

“…Ten larvae were introduced in each well of polystyrene six-well plates with a final volume of 2 mL containing different concentrations of the test solution as well as control wells without treatments [27]. O. syriacum essential oil was tested on A. simplex in the range of 0–1 mg mL −1 .…”

“…This assay was performed in 6 well plates. Ten larvae were introduced in each well of polystyrene plates with a final volume of 2 ml sterile saline solution containing different concentrations of the test solution (Gómez-Rincón et al 2014 ). O. compactum essential oil was tested against Anisakis in the range of 0–1 μl/ml.…”
