摘      要：Objective:To investigate the impact of the most potent petroleum ether extract of Artemisia annua(***) and Azadirachta indica(***) on total carbohydrate,lipid and protein level of Anopheles stephensi and Culex quinquefasciatus ***:Mosquito larvae were exposed to the extracts selected as per standard WHO ***(glucose),total lipid and protein were estimated by the methods as Nelson,Bragdon and Lowry described, ***:The glucose levels were increased to 27.87%and 46.8%,respectively in anopheline larval tissues after treatment with petroleum ether extract of *** and methanolic extract of *** culicine larvae,glucose levels were reduced to 58.96%and 24.65%, *** treatment with *** extract,lipid contents in anopheline and culicine larvae decreased by 28.57%and 25.0%,respectively and increased by 14.29%and 50.00%in the Anopheles and Culex larvae,respectively after treatment with methanolic extract of Az. *** protein levels were reduced to 63.13%and 92.62%in anopheline and to 32.39%and 48.12%in culicine larvae after treatment with *** and *** extracts,respectively. Conclusions:Two extracts produce significant alterations in the biochemical pr of iles of anopheline and culicine ***,the impacting factors of extracts on carbohydrate,lipid and protein contents of larvae are species and specific *** indicates the disturbed metabolic activity of the larvae.
