Development of Cleistanthus collinus (Roxb.) (Benth) based botanical formulations against Spodoptera litura

R Ranjith and S Arivudainambi

Glycosides such as Cleistanthin A and B are the principle toxins isolated from this poisonous plant, as all parts of this plant is reported as highly toxic. It is also used as cattle and fish poison. The leaves are considered as an abortifacient. There is a significant amount of arylnaphthalide lignans such as diphyllin, collinusin and many other related compounds present in the plant Cleistanthus collinus. Development of formulation is the one way to popularize and commercialize the Cleistanthus collinus plant. In this present study, Formulations development by Cleistanthus collinus (Roxb.) (Benth) extracts. Finally found 6 number of formulations respectively Water Soluble Granules, Water Soluble tablet, Soap, Syrup, Soluble tablet (Preformed), Soluble globules and there insecticidal activity. The average weight of soluble tablet, Water soluble granule, soluble globule, and soluble tablet (Preformed) were found as 0.12, 0.02, 0.05 and 0.15 respectively. The ‘F’ value worked out for the final weight of the formulations was 8, 600, 100 and 7.
