Mosquito repellent activity is compared with standard drug Odomos. Results: The plant possesses significant mosquito repellant activity at higher concentrations of 7.5% and10.0 % w/w respectively. The mosquito repellant effect of extracts is comparable with that of the effect produced by the standard drug odomos. Conclusion: From the above finding concluding that, the plant possesses significant mosquito repellant activity at higher concentrations of 7.5% and10.0%w/w respectively. Conclude that the polyherbal cream formulation is comparatively effective to that of standard drug i.e., Odomos which also require further research regarding pharmacological screening for its further development and use.
