摘要
This work reportes the effects of isolated proteins from algaroba (Prosopis juliflora D.C.) seeds fractionated by ammonium sulfate at saturation 0-30%, 30-60% and 60-90%. They were tested, in vitro, against papain and midgut homogenate of C. maculatus larvae. Also, the effects in vivo these protein fractions on the development of C. maculatus larvae were tested. F 30/60 fraction was effective against papain (72% inhibition), midgut homogenate of larvae of C. maculatus (59,2% inhibition) and in vivo with WD50 of 1,7%.
