This research evaluated the profiling of bioactive compounds and insecticidal activities of the crude extracts of horns and hoofs of cow and goat against on wheat grains. Different concentrations (0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5 ml) of the crude extracts were applied per 20 g of wheat grains to assess the toxicity effect on adult mortality and adult emergence. The different concentrations of the two extracts evoked mortality of . However, the most effective concentration was 0.5 ml of the crude extract of goat horn causing 100 % mortality after 5days of application, while extract of cow hoof at the same concentration resulted in 86.67 % mortality of after 5 days of exposure. The required lethal concentration needed to control 50 % population of by extract of cow horn and goat hoof after 24 h exposure was 0.57 ml and 0.48 ml, respectively. Proximate compositions of the animal hoofs and horns showed that the samples contained fat, crude protein and ash. The number of bioactive compounds detected in cow hoof was 44 and goat horn was 21. The study has shown the insecticidal potential of the understudied animal materials. The use of extracts from the horns of goats should be looked into and explored as an eco-friendly measure in the control of
本研究评估了牛和山羊的角与蹄的粗提物对小麦籽粒的生物活性化合物谱及杀虫活性。每20克小麦籽粒施加不同浓度（0.1、0.2、0.3、0.4和0.5毫升）的粗提物，以评估对成虫死亡率和成虫羽化的毒性作用。两种提取物的不同浓度均引发了死亡率。然而，最有效的浓度是山羊角粗提物0.5毫升，施用5天后导致100%死亡率，而相同浓度的牛蹄提取物在暴露5天后导致86.67%死亡率。暴露24小时后，牛角和山羊角提取物控制50%种群所需的致死浓度分别为0.57毫升和0.48毫升。动物蹄和角的近似成分表明，样品含有脂肪、粗蛋白和灰分。在牛蹄中检测到的生物活性化合物数量为44种，山羊角中为21种。该研究显示了所研究的动物材料的杀虫潜力。应研究并探索使用山羊角提取物作为控制……的一种生态友好措施
