Uso de tanino extraído da casca da Acacia mangium no controle de carrapatos

Abstract

The tannin extracted from the bark of Acacia mangium is intended to help control and minimize the impacts that may occur in an infestation of the Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) (microplus) tick, which has become a great loss for agriculture. Tannins are condensed and active in the healing process of the animal's leather, this healing process promotes the binding of proteins on the injured tissues, thus creating a protective layer that isolates the wound site and reducing its permeability and exudation, stimulating tissue repair. For the development of the product based on tannin, the ticks (females) were collected in the field, which will be incubated for the eggs to hatch in the laboratory, so that they can develop where they will be tested in baths, at first these tests will be for to evaluate the behavior of females on the post-bath effect of the product with tannin on oviposition and hatching of eggs.
