This study investigated the in vitro anti-dactylogyridean efficacy of the Zingiber officinale, Curcuma longaand Cymbopogon nardus essential oils, as well as the acute toxicity for Colossoma macropomum (tambaqui). The majority chemicalcomponents of the essential oils of Z. officinale (α-zingiberene, β-sesquiphellandrene, limonene and geranial), C. longa (ar-turmerone, α-turmerone, α-phellandrene, curlone and 1,8-cineole) and C. nardus (geraniol, geranial and neral) were analysed.
