Just Another Normal Day
Chapter I
Introduction:
The number of pests in our homes and environment are increasing. Nowadays, people preferred buying chemical products to kill the harmful pest on our surroundings. These chemical products pollute our environment and it is really dangerous to our health. Because of these problems, researchers had found and discovered new and organic alternative pesticides.
The researchers want to find much cheaper and environmentally friendly pesticide. But here the pesticide will not be tested on the adult insect, but it will be tested on the larva of the insect. Soybean, a species of legume native to East Asia, will be compared to the controlled larvicide. Soybean has an inhibitor that slows down the growth of an animal that makes it a possible larvicide. Here you will see the effect of the soybean extract on the larva of a certain insect.
Background of the study:
The dengue fever virus is a danger to the health of the Filipinos. Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus) is a vector for transmitting not only dengue, but also Chikungunya, yellow fever viruses, and other diseases.
Studies have conducted throughout the world to find a solution to lessen the growth of this kind of mosquito. People have used mosquito nets to prevent their children from the bites of mosquitoes. People also used mosquito repellents to prevent the growth of the mosquito.
People have focused on using larvicides for mosquito control. Based on studies, the active ingredient in these larvicides, methoprene, stuns the growth of the other organisms that has been affected by it.
The people have been wondering, “What can be an effective and natural insecticide?”
Soybean (Glycine max) is a common plant in the Philippines. Studies shows that it contains a certain substance known as trypsin inhibitor that slows down the growth of an animal. Along with the other ingredients, is the powdered soybean feasible to be used as mosquito larvicide?
Statement of the Problem:
