Farnesol

A sesquiterpenoid that has a role as a plant metabolite, a fungal metabolite and an antimicrobial agent trans,trans-Farnesol is a natural product || . Six terpenoids (farnesol, (-)--bisabolol, cis-nerolidol, trans-nerolidol, methyleugenol, (R)-(+)-limonene) ,are strong AChE inhibitors against An. funestus and An. arabiensis, while there was a moderate inhibitory activity against An. gambiae AChE, but very weak activity against An. coluzzii, and Electric eel AChE Rants'o et al.
