Mosquito bites can give an unpleasant feeling and may transmit the vector disease such as dengue or malaria to humankind. Mosquitoes are attracted to human blood containing protein to develop their eggs, biting human to another human, thereby transmitting the vector disease to human. Topical mosquito repellent gel was prepared with different concentration of extracted oil from carom seed all the formulation showed satisfied result with regular evaluation parameters like spreadability, washability, mosquito repellent activity, irritancy test. The formulation containing 7.5% of Carom seed oil extract showed repellent activity up to 80% these results are encouraging and promising. At last it was concluded that Carom seed oil extract has potential of mosquito repellent and can be converted into a marketed formulation like essence stick, repellent Gel etc. [1]
