Aedes aegypti is the main species engaged in the transmission of dengue fever. Natural repellents such as essential oils may provide a means of protection from mosquito bites that are safer and more pleasant to use.

Nanoemulsion formulation enables to control the volatility of essential oil and thereby extends the duration of repellency.

Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis revealed that oxygenated monoterpenes and diterpenes constituted 31.14% and 21.20% of J. officinale, respectively. For A. nobilis, oxygenated monoterpenes accounted for 84.79% of the compounds identified. The combination of J. officinale and A. nobilis in a 1:1 ratio exhibited significantly (p < 0.05) higher repellency against Ae. aegypti using a rat model for 120 min than the individual oils. The droplet size of nanoemulsions; nJC1, nJC2 and nJC3 were 264.23, 291.43 and 351.37 nm, respectively.
