Insecticides based on botanical sources have taken on increased attention due to differing modes of action from current insecticides in use and the view that they may be environmentally friendly. Thymoquinone, a component in the essential oil of incense cedar heartwood, has been shown to have insecticidal action against adult mosquitoes. This study evaluated relative toxicities of thymoquinone, selected derivatives of thymoquinone, hydroquinone, and arbutin to determine if any had similar or better activity. The intrinsic toxicities of hydroquinone and thymohydroquinone were not significantly different from thymoquinone, while libocedrol and arbutin were significantly less toxic.
基于植物源的杀虫剂由于其与目前使用的杀虫剂不同的作用方式以及它们可能对环境友好的观点而受到越来越多的关注。百里醌是香脂冷杉心材精油中的一种成分，已被证明对成年蚊子具有杀虫作用。本研究评估了百里醌、百里醌的选定衍生物、对苯二酚和熊果苷的相对毒性，以确定是否有任何一种具有相似或更好的活性。对苯二酚和百里氢醌的内在毒性与百里醌没有显著差异，而冷杉醇和熊果苷的毒性则显著较低。
