- Abstract
- The acaricidal activities of the volatile compounds derived from Melaleuca alternifolia leaf oil were evaluated against house dust mites. Terpinen-4-ol (3.89 and 3.51 mu g/cm(2)) was approximately 2.0 and 1.7 times more active than benzyl benzoate (7.83 and 5.96 mu g/cm(2)). Therefore, terpinen-4-ol could be useful as a natural acaricide.
