Studies on crude drugs effective on visceral larva migrans. II. Larvicidal principles in Kaempferiae Rhizoma.

Abstract
Larvicidal principles obtained from the methanol extract of Kaempferiae Rhizoma (rhizomes of Kaemferia galanga) were identified as ethyl cinnamate, ethyl p-methoxycinnamate, and p-methoxycinnamic acid. Cinnamic acid and some of its derivatives showed larvicidal activity.
