0.05). In contrast, the nonformulated EOs resulted in only 45 min of protection, highlighting the critical role of the nanocarrier system.
ConclusionThe nanoliposomal gel formulation, particularly containing clove EO, represents a potent and safe botanical alternative to conventional synthetic repellents. This approach offers a promising strategy for integrated vector management, warranting further field-based investigations.
