 Abstract

This study aims to determine the repellant effect of Lansium Domesticum(Lanzones) peel

on mosquitoes

.Two-set-up were constructed, one for the Lanzones repellant and the other for the

commercially available mosquito repellant coils. Each set-ups were smoked for 30 minutes by

their respective repellant. The mosquitoes that transferred to the chamber were counted every

five .

There were 3 trials for each repellant and the results of the Lanzones repellant were

37,38,33 respectively.Compared with the results of commercially available "katol" of 36,30,35.

Data gathered in this experiment were analyzed using the chi-square and T-test tool statistical

analysis to see whether the gathered data were significant. The chi-square value gathered in

exercises were 0.62,0.26,0.99 while the p-value for the T-test was 0.09,respectively.

This study revealed that the effect of Lanzones peel as repellant is comparable to

commercially availabe "katol" which is considered the most popular and widely used insecticide

vaporizers.
Anthracnose Inhibiting Activity of Madre de Cacao (Gliricidia sepium) Leaf Extract on Post –
harvest Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum)

Introduction
Anthracnose is a common and serious disease of plants in tropical region and humid

areas. It is a fungus that causes heavy and deep damage to tomatoes making it easy to rot.

Growth of Anthracnose (C. Coccodes) is most rapid at 80° F, although the fungus can cause

infections over a wide range of temperatures (55°-95° F). Wet weather promotes disease

development, and splashing water in the form of rain or overhead irrigation favors the spread of

the disease. Colonies as observed by the researchers are usually dark pigmented with white aerial

vegetative part of a fungus which is called mycelium. Consisting of numerous black compact

mass of hardened fungal mycelium containing food reserves (sclerotia) and light brown colored

conidial masses, reverse is a dark brown conidial masses. It is also a result in wide range of

symptoms like leaf spots, defoliation and distortion in many different kinds of plants. One of the

plants that is affected by this kind of fungi are tomatoes.

The researchers have come up with the idea of using Madre de Cacao (Gliricidia

sepium) leaf extract on post-harvest Tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum). The study ascertained

that the medicarpin content of the said plant is an effective treatment for fungi. Since Gliricidia

has already proven its power on fungal infections, the researchers conducted several

experimentation and trials to figure out its effectiveness; with this, Anthracnose can now be

prevented and cured without the help of commercially known anti-fungal treatment.

Scope and Limitation

This study would like to find out if there is a possibility of mosquito reproduction in different
mediums. The research is only limited in the analysis of reproduction and the effects. The researcher
does not include the explanation of such events like the growth of mosquito larvae in a specific medium.

Statement of the Problem

The researchers aimed to determine if the Talisay (Terminalia catappa) leaves extract could be
developed as a multi-colored fabric dye.

Specifically, the study sought to answer the following questions:

1. Can Talisay (Terminalia catappa) leaves extract be developed as a multi-colored dye?

2. Is there a significant difference between the experimental and control set-ups in terms of:

a. Reaction to acid

b. Reaction to base

c. pH level

d. Color fastness
