Objective: To test the lethality of Artemisia vulgaris fractional extracts on Artemia salina larvae.
Methods: A brine shrimp lethal assay was performed in two timelines of treatment exposure to detect bio-effects in different fractions of the extract.
Results: The extracts had a significant impact after 24 hours of exposure, with LC50 values of 183.60 ± 7.40; 164.50 ± 9.10; 264.80 ± 19.20 and 511.30 ± 31.10 183.60 ± 7.40; 164.50 ± 9.10; 264.80 ± 19.20 and 511.30 ± 31.10 (µg/mL) for chloroform, n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and water, respectively.
Conclusion: The chloroform and n-hexane extracts had the most effective lethality on larvae viability.
