Dual-target anti-tick activity of Tagetes erecta – based topical cream through acetylcholinesterase inhibition and salivary protein targeting

2026-05-27

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Ticks are major vectors of pathogens, imposing significant health and economic burdens in humans and animals. Conventional synthetic acaricides face increasing limitations due to resistance and environmental concerns, highlighting the need for eco-friendly alternatives. We developed a topical cream based on ethanolic extracts of <italic>Tagetes erecta</italic> flowers, a plant tradi...
