Phytochemicals are safe for non-target organisms like man and vector borne diseases due to insecticidal nature. Larvicidal activity of biologically active compounds i.e. Apigenin and Rutin extracted from the leaves of Jatropha gossypifolia and Codiaeum variegatum against larvae of Culex quinquefasciatus was studied in their binary combination (1:2). Standard WHO protocols was adopted for the larvicidal bioassay. The active compounds i.e. Apigenin and Rutin extracted through ethyl alcohol from the leaves of Euphorbious plants was administered for 24h, 48h, 72h and 96h to the larvae of C. quinquefasciatus. Exposure of larvae over 24h to 96h sub-lethal doses (40% and 80% of LC50) of Apigenin and Rutin in the ratio 1:2, significantly (P<0.05) altered the biochemical levels like total protein, total free amino acid, glycogen and activities of enzymes acetylcholinesterase, acid and alkaline phosphatases in whole body tissue of the larvae. The alteration in all these biochemical parameters were significantly(P<0.05) time and dose dependent. It may act as an ecofriendly measure to manage the population of filarial vector Culex quinquefasciatus.
