Description

COMPOSITION AU PYRÈTHRE VÉGÉTAL POUR LE CONTRÔLE DES  PLANT PYRETHRE COMPOSITION FOR THE CONTROL OF
ARTHROPODES NUISIBLES  HARMFUL ARTHROPODS
La présente invention se situe dans le domaine de la lutte contre des arthropodes nuisibles. Particulièrement, l'invention concerne une composition, d'origine naturelle, à base de pyrèthre végétal. The present invention is in the field of combating arthropod pests. In particular, the invention relates to a composition of natural origin, based on plant pyrethrum.
On sait que la pyréthrine est une molécule insecticide naturelle extraite des plantes oléorésines, notamment du chrysanthème. Cet insecticide de contact tue les arti ropodes en provoquant un effet choc, en touchant le système nerveux, même à très faible dose. Malheureusement, d'une part, lorsque la pyréthrine est comprise dans une formulation, elle est très rapidement dégradée par les rayonnements UV et par les microorganismes à tel point que son action s'en trouve affaiblie voire anéantie ; d'autre part, elle n'est pas stable au cours du stockage. Afin de palier à ces problèmes de dégradation précoce, il existe dans le commerce, des molécules de substitution d'origine synthétique, dérivées des pyréthrines, appartenant à la famille des pyrétliroïdes (exemples : Permethrine, Fluométrhine, etc.), qui ont la capacité de résister plus longtemps aux attaques des UV ainsi qu'aux autres agressions de nature chimique et biologique. Depuis longtemps, il était nécessaire de protéger le pyrèthre végétal, dans une composition, de la dégradation aux UV pour qu'il puisse encore apporter son action insecticide lors de son utilisation. De même, il était aussi nécessaire de pouvoir stabiliser le pyrèthre végétal au cours de son stockage pendant une période pouvant aller jusqu'à trois ans. Pyrethrin is known to be a natural insecticidal molecule extracted from oleoresin plants, including chrysanthemum. This contact insecticide kills arthropods causing shock, affecting the nervous system, even at very low doses. Unfortunately, on the one hand, when pyrethrin is included in a formulation, it is very rapidly degraded by UV radiation and microorganisms to such an extent that its action is weakened or even destroyed; on the other hand, it is not stable during storage. To overcome these problems of early degradation, there are commercially available replacement molecules of synthetic origin, derived from pyrethrins, belonging to the family of pyrethroids (examples: Permethrin, Fluometrine, etc.), which have the capacity to resist longer the attacks of the UV as well as the other aggressions of chemical and biological nature. For a long time, it was necessary to protect the plant pyrethrum, in a composition, from UV degradation so that it can still bring its insecticidal action during its use. Similarly, it was also necessary to be able to stabilize the plant pyrethrum during its storage for a period of up to three years.
L'huile de neem et l'extrait de margosa sont, tous deux, issus de la graine du margosier, également appelé arbre à neem. La différence entre l'huile de neem et l'extrait de margosa se situe dans leur procédé d'extraction utilisé. L'huile de neem vierge est obtenue par simple pression à froid des graines, alors que l'extrait de margosa est obtenu en laboratoire, selon différents procédés d'extraction de nature chimique. Une ou plusieurs molécules actives peuvent alors être sélectionnées à partir de l'extrait. Les principaux ingrédients actifs de l'extrait de margosa sont des acides gras sous forme de glycérides ou libres, ainsi que des limonoïdes, comme la nimbin, la salannin et l'azadirachtine. Il est connu que l'extrait de margosa peut être utilisé pour contrôler de nombreuses espèces d'insectes et d'arachnides, comme par exemple les poissons d'argent, les mouches, les moustiques, les fourmis, les acariens, etc. L'extrait de margosa possède un large spectre d'action chez les arthropodes grâce au nombre important des constituants actifs qui le composent ; il en résulte alors une réduction du risque de développement de l'accoutumance chez lesdits arthropodes. De plus, selon la dose et les ratios des constituants actifs composant l'extrait de margosa, il est possible d'observer un effet allant de la répulsion à la mortalité de ces différents arthropodes. Par ailleurs, l'extrait de margosa a un mode d'action à long terme c'est-à-dire que l'effet insecticide, sur des arthropodes ciblés, apparaît après quelques heures. Ce mode d'action à effet rémanent est très bénéfique dans la lutte contre certains arthropodes pour qui, l'effet choc les paralyse seulement, sans les tuer. Neem oil and margosa extract are both derived from the seed of the margosier, also called neem tree. The difference between neem oil and margosa extract lies in their extraction process used. Virgin neem oil is obtained by simple cold pressing of the seeds, while the margosa extract is obtained in the laboratory, according to various extraction processes of a chemical nature. One or more active molecules can then be selected from the extract. The main active ingredients of margosa extract are glyceride or free fatty acids, as well as limonoids such as nimbin, salanin and azadirachtin. It is known that margosa extract can be used to control many species of insects and arachnids, such as silverfish, flies, mosquitoes, ants, mites, etc. Margosa extract has a broad spectrum of action in arthropods due to the large number of active constituents that make it up; this results in a reduction of the risk of development of habituation in the said arthropods. Moreover, depending on the dose and the ratios of the active constituents of the margosa extract, it is possible to observe an effect ranging from the repulsion to the mortality of these different arthropods. In addition, margosa extract has a long-term mode of action that is to say that the insecticidal effect on targeted arthropods appears after a few hours. This mode of action with residual effect is very beneficial in the fight against certain arthropods for which, the shock effect paralyzes them only, without killing them.
Il est connu que de nombreuses huiles essentielles ont une action répulsive, notamment envers les arthropodes comme les puces, les tiques, les moustiques, les mouches, les poux, etc. It is known that many essential oils have a repulsive action, especially towards arthropods such as fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, flies, lice, etc.
Il est également connu que le pyrèthre végétal est mélangé avec d'autres composés en vue d'obtenir une synergie d'action insecticide. D'un côté, l'action de la pyréthrine peut être synergisée par des composés synthétiques tels que le pipéronyl butoxide (PBO). Ainsi les brevets allemands n°3717467 et n°4421471 qui décrivent des sprays anti-insectes comprenant un mélange d'extrait de pyréthrine, de PBO, de l'huile de turpentine, de lavandin et de citronnelle, confirment ces effets synergiques. D'un autre côté, l'action de la pyréthrine peut être synergisée par des composés naturels comme décrit par le brevet américain n°5679662 à propos d'une composition insecticide comprenant du pyrèthre végétal en association avec l'azadkachtine, ou du pyrèthre avec l'huile de neem purifiée dépourvue d'azadirachtine, pour augmenter l'activité insecticide du pyrèthre. Le brevet français n°2447681 décrit une composition insecticide comprenant de la pyréthrine, de l'huile essentielle de lavande et de la citronnelle. La demande de brevet international n°8505038 décrit une composition insecticide comprenant du pyrèthre végétale, de la roténone ou les deux, et un ou plusieurs composants choisis parmi l'eucalyptus, le romarin, la menthe poivrée et l'acide borique. Le brevet français n°3031006 décrit une composition insecticide comprenant un extrait végétal de pyrèthre en forme d'huile essentielle agissant sur le système nerveux, un macérât contenant l'acide formique (extrait d'ortie), un agent asphyxiant en forme d'huile végétale associée à la saponine pour obstruer les pores de l'épidémie et de l'huile essentielle d'agrumes pour détruire la cuticule du corps de l'insecte. It is also known that plant pyrethrum is mixed with other compounds in order to obtain a synergistic insecticidal action. On the one hand, the action of pyrethrin can be synergized by synthetic compounds such as piperonyl butoxide (PBO). Thus German Patent Nos. 3717467 and 4421471 which describe insect sprays comprising a mixture of pyrethrin extract, PBO, turpentine oil, lavandin and lemongrass, confirm these synergistic effects. On the other hand, the action of pyrethrin can be synergized by natural compounds as described by US Patent No. 5679662 for an insecticidal composition comprising plant pyrethrum in combination with azadkachtin, or pyrethrum with purified neem oil devoid of azadirachtin, to increase the insecticidal activity of pyrethrum. French Patent No. 2,447,681 describes an insecticidal composition comprising pyrethrin, lavender essential oil and lemongrass. International Patent Application No. 8505038 discloses an insecticidal composition comprising vegetable pyrethrum, rotenone or both, and one or more components selected from eucalyptus, rosemary, peppermint and boric acid. French Patent No. 3031006 discloses an insecticidal composition comprising a plant extract of pyrethrum in the form of essential oil acting on the nervous system, a macerate containing formic acid (nettle extract), an asphyxiating agent in the form of oil plant associated with saponin to clog the pores of the epidemic and citrus essential oil to destroy the cuticle of the body of the insect.
Dans un autre registre, pour améliorer l'efficacité insecticide du pyrèthre végétal, le brevet européen n°l 102540 propose l'adjonction de l'alcool benzylique comme le thymol ou l'eugénol, dont la proportion en poids, (pyrèthre/alcool) est comprise entre 50/1 et 10/1. D'autres composés naturels sont également utilisés à cette fin notamment l'huile de sésame (US4983591), des sels d'acides gras spécifiques (US4983591), des triglycérides et de l'extrait de chrysanthème (EP0761097). In another register, to improve the insecticidal efficacy of plant pyrethrum, European Patent No. 102540 proposes the addition of benzyl alcohol such as thymol or eugenol, the proportion by weight (pyrethrum / alcohol). is between 50/1 and 10/1. Other natural compounds are also used for this purpose, in particular sesame oil (US4983591), salts of specific fatty acids (US4983591), triglycerides and chrysanthemum extract (EP0761097).
On connaît également des pipettes antiparasitaires renfermant un mélange d'actif répulsif constitué de margosa, de pyrèthre, de géraniol et de la lavande dont la quantité de chacun des composant est inconnue (Zoomalia : Pipette antiparasitaire volaille - Antiparasites et soins oiseaux). Le document « Vétobiol : Vétobiol Lotion antiparasitaire habitat insecticide 100 mL » divulgue une lotion anti-insectes comportant de l'extrait de margosa, du géraniol, de lavandula hybrida, de l'extrait de pyrèthre végétal en grande quantité.

The document "Les comptoirs de la Bio: Biovetol- Les comptoirs de la Bio" describes flea and antitic products containing margosa, pyrethrum, geraniol and lavender at unknown proportions. WO2008 / 124882 discloses a composition comprising eucalyptus essential oil, 10 to 40% neem oil, lemongrass essential oil, pyrethrum, lavender essential oil. WO96 / 39034 discloses a pesticidal composition comprising 0.002 to 0.02% by weight of pyrethrum and neem oil.
Force est de constater qu'il est recherché par l'art antérieur d'obtenir une composition, à action exclusivement insecticide, renfermant un pyrèthre végétal. A l'heure actuelle, l'état de la technique mentionne certains acides gras, certaines huiles essentielles voire même le PBO, pour améliorer l'efficacité de l'action insecticide du pyrèthre végétal formulé dans une composition. It is clear that it is sought by the prior art to obtain a composition, exclusively insecticidal action, containing a pyrethrum plant. At present, the state of the art mentions certain fatty acids, certain essential oils or even the PBO, to improve the effectiveness of the insecticidal action of plant pyrethrum formulated in a composition.
Donc, un premier but de la présente invention est de fournir une composition comportant du pyrèthre végétal dont l'action répulsive contre les arthropodes est non seulement améliorée et préservée, mais également prolongée dans le temps pour assurer un effet rémanent voue insecticide. Un autre but de la présente invention est de fournir une composition au pyrèthre végétal apte à repousser efficacement les arthropodes nuisibles, particulièrement des ectoparasites, chez un sujet humain et animal. Thus, a first object of the present invention is to provide a composition comprising plant pyrethrum whose repulsive action against arthropods is not only improved and preserved, but also extended over time to ensure a residual insecticide effect. Another object of the present invention is to provide a plant pyrethrum composition capable of effectively repelling harmful arthropods, particularly ectoparasites, in a human and animal subject.
Un autre but de la présente invention consiste à fournir une composition comportant du pyrèthre végétal apte à induire un effet pesticide curatif lorsque le sujet est déjà infecté par des nuisibles, ainsi qu'un effet répulsif préventif pour éviter une ré-infestation d'un sujet par lesdits nuisibles. Another object of the present invention is to provide a composition comprising plant pyrethrum capable of inducing a curative pesticidal effect when the subject is already infected with pests, as well as a preventive repellent effect to prevent re-infestation of a subject. by the said pests.
On entend par « arthropodes nuisibles », les arachnides tels que les tiques, les acariens et les insectes tels que les mouches, les moustiques, les puces, les punaises de lit, les poux et ce, quelque soit leur stade de développement. "Arthropods harmful" means arachnids such as ticks, mites and insects such as flies, mosquitoes, fleas, bed bugs, lice and this, whatever their stage of development.
On entend par « contrôle » des nuisibles, l'action qui consiste soit à les repousser soit à les tuer soit les deux simultanément. "Control" of pests means the act of either repelling them or killing them, or both simultaneously.
On entend par « agent actif » le mélange synergique des ingrédients actifs à action répulsive et/ou pesticide ; ledit agent actif peut être associé à un ou plusieurs additifs de formulation appropriés lors de la formulation de la composition. By "active agent" is meant the synergistic mixture of the active ingredients with repellent and / or pesticidal action; said active agent may be combined with one or more suitable formulation additives during formulation of the composition.
La présente invention a, en conséquence, pour premier objet, une composition pour le contrôle des arthropodes nuisibles qui constituent des cibles susceptibles d'infester un sujet humain ou animal à traiter, composition renfermant un agent actif insecticide et/ou insectifuge dont la diffusion assure le contrôle desdits arthropodes nuisibles, ladite composition comportant, en outre, un véhicule d'application topique approprié pour permettre une distribution sur au moins une partie du corps dudit sujet à traiter, l'agent actif étant constitué par un mélange synergique de pyrèthre végétal, d'extrait naturel de margosa et d'au moins une huile essentielle, caractérisée en ce qu'elle comprend : The present invention therefore has, as a first object, a composition for the control of arthropods that are harmful targets that may infect a human or animal subject to be treated, a composition containing an insecticide and / or insect repellent active agent whose diffusion ensures the control of said harmful arthropods, said composition further comprising a suitable topical application vehicle to allow distribution over at least a part of the body of said subject to be treated, the active agent being constituted by a synergistic mixture of plant pyrethrum, natural extract of margosa and at least one essential oil, characterized in that it comprises:
0,15 à 10% en poids de pyrèthre végétal,  0.15 to 10% by weight of vegetable pyrethrum,
0,15 à 5% en poids d'extrait de margosa,  0.15 to 5% by weight of margosa extract,
0,15 à 10% en poids d'une huile essentielle,  0.15 to 10% by weight of an essential oil,
45 à 99,55% en poids de véhicule d'application topique,  45 to 99.55% by weight of topical application vehicle,
0 à 25% en poids d'additifs de formulation.  0 to 25% by weight of formulation additives.
Selon un mode de réalisation, le pyrèthre végétal est choisi parmi le pyrèthre du Caucase, le pyrèthre dalmate, le chrysanthème pesticide, le pyrèthre naturel et la pyréthrine.  According to one embodiment, the plant pyrethrum is selected from Caucasian pyrethrum, Dalmatian pyrethrum, pesticidal chrysanthemum, natural pyrethrum and pyrethrin.
Selon un mode de réalisation, l'huile essentielle est choisie dans le groupe formé par l'huile essentielle de cannelle, l'huile essentielle menthe verte, l'huile essentielle de menthe pouliot, l'huile essentielle de menthe des champs, l'huile essentielle de lemon-grass, l'huile essentielle de cèdre, l'huile essentielle de citronnelle, l'huile essentielle d'eucalyptus, l'huile essentielle de lavandin, l'huile essentielle de lavande, l'huile essentielle de palmarosa ou le mélange de celles-ci. According to one embodiment, the essential oil is selected from the group consisting of cinnamon essential oil, spearmint essential oil, pennyroyal essential oil, mint essential oil, lemongrass essential oil, cedar essential oil, lemongrass essential oil, eucalyptus essential oil, lavandin essential oil, lavender essential oil, palmarosa essential oil or the mixture of these.
Selon un mode de réalisation particulièrement préféré, l'huile essentielle est l'huile essentielle de lavandin ou l'huile essentielle de lavande. According to a particularly preferred embodiment, the essential oil is lavandin essential oil or lavender essential oil.
Selon une variante de réalisation, l'huile essentielle peut être remplacée, à proportion égale, par leurs constituants majoritaires actifs. Lesdits constituants majoritaires peuvent être les alcools terpéniques comme le géraniol, le linalol, le p-menthane-diol, le menthol, les esters terpéniques, les aldéhydes. According to an alternative embodiment, the essential oil can be replaced, in equal proportion, by their active constituents. Said majority constituents may be terpene alcohols such as geraniol, linalool, p-menthane-diol, menthol, terpene esters, aldehydes.
Avantageusement, l'extrait naturel de margosa peut être substitué, à proportion égale, par l'huile de neem ou ses constituants actifs majoritaires ; il en est de même en ce qui concerne l'huile essentielle. Advantageously, the natural extract of margosa may be substituted, in equal proportion, by neem oil or its majority active constituents; it is the same with regard to the essential oil.
De manière surprenante, les inventeurs ont constaté que l'association des trois ingrédients actifs que sont le pyrèthre végétal, l'extrait naturel de margosa et une huile essentielle constituant l'agent actif formulé dans une composition permet d'obtenir un effet synergique sur l'effet recherché envers l'espèce des artiiropodes nuisibles. En faisant varier habilement le ratio entre ces trois ingrédients, il est possible soit d'obtenir une action répulsive, soit une action pesticide. D'une manière générale, on peut considérer qu'un fort taux de pyrèthre et/ou de margosa confère un effet pesticide à la composition alors qu'un fort taux d'huile essentielle confère majoritairement un effet répulsif. Surprisingly, the inventors have found that the combination of the three active ingredients, which are the plant pyrethrum, the natural extract of margosa and an essential oil constituting the active agent formulated in a composition makes it possible to obtain a synergistic effect on the skin. the desired effect on the species of parasitic arthropods. By skillfully varying the ratio between these three ingredients, it is possible either to obtain a repellent action or a pesticidal action. In general, it can be considered that a high rate of pyrethrum and / or margosa confers a pesticidal effect to the composition while a high level of essential oil confers mainly a repellent effect.
Avantageusement, l'agent actif de la composition est formulé sous forme liquide. Selon un mode de réalisation, le rapport massique pyrèdire végétal/extrait naturel de margosa/huile essentielle dans l'agent actif est compris entre 1 /1 /1 et 1 /1 /10. Advantageously, the active agent of the composition is formulated in liquid form.

Les tests ont été réalisés en adéquation avec les recommandations de l'Union Européenne sur les produits biocides (EC 2012).  The tests were carried out in accordance with the recommendations of the European Union on biocidal products (EC 2012).
Test sur les puces : Flea test:
Pour cette expérience, des puces adultes des deux sexes mélangés Ctenocephalides fe/is (Bouché, 1835) (Siphonaptera : Pulicidae) sont utilisées. L'étude a été menée dans un olfactomètre à quatre entrées décrit par Vet et al. (1983). Ce type de dispositif permet d'évaluer strictement l'effet répulsif de l'odeur d'un produit (PT1 de la réglementation biocide), sans contact direct avec celui-ci pour éviter les biais liés à une éventuelle toxicité (PT18 de la réglementation biocide). Ce test in vitro est une méthode viable permettant de limiter les tests de produits sur animaux comme recommandé par la directive européenne 2010/63/UE. For this experiment, adult fleas of both sexes mixed Ctenocephalides (Ischia, 1835) (Siphonaptera: Pulicidae) are used. The study was conducted in a four-way olfactometer described by Vet et al. (1983). This type of device makes it possible to strictly evaluate the repellent effect of the odor of a product (PT1 of the biocidal regulation), without direct contact with it to avoid bias related to possible toxicity (PT18 of the regulation biocide). This in vitro test is a viable method to limit the testing of animal products as recommended by European Directive 2010/63 / EU.
Pour ce faire, dans chaque bras, l'air bulle à travers le pot rempli d'eau distillée pour être humidifié, puis transite via le pot contenant la composition à tester ou le contrôle avant d'entrer dans l'olfactomètre au centre duquel il est aspiré. Il se crée ainsi à l'intérieur de l'olfactomètre quatre zones odorantes distinctes, correspondant aux quatre bras de l'olfactomètre. Environ 20 puces sont introduites au centre de l'olfactomètre, puis toutes les 30 secondes pendant 20 minutes, le nombre de puces présentes dans chaque bras est comptabilisé. Le nombre total cumulé de puces pour chacune des deux odeurs (lotion du tableau 1 et contrôle) permet de calculer un indice comportemental selon la formule I— (T-C)/ (T+C) avec T le nombre total cumulé de puces dans les deux bras contenant l'odeur test et C le nombre total cumulé de puces dans les deux bras contenant l'odeur contrôle. Cet indice varie de -1 (répulsif) à + / (attractif). La validité de l'effet comportemental est statistiquement vérifiée par un test de Mann-Whitney grâce au logiciel R. La manipulation est répétée six fois en alternant les positions des pots tests et contrôles afin de couvrir toutes les six différentes combinaisons possibles. To do this, in each arm, the air bubbles through the pot filled with distilled water to be moistened, then passes through the pot containing the composition to be tested or control before entering the olfactometer in the center of which it is sucked. This creates four distinct odorous zones within the olfactometer, corresponding to the four arms of the olfactometer. About 20 chips are introduced in the center of the olfactometer, then every 30 seconds for 20 minutes, the number of chips in each arm is counted. The cumulative total number of chips for each of the two odors (lotion of Table 1 and control) makes it possible to calculate a behavioral index according to the formula I- (TC) / (T + C) with T the cumulative total number of chips in both arm containing the odor test and C the cumulative total number of fleas in both arms containing the odor control. This index varies from -1 (repellent) to + / (attractive). The validity of the behavioral effect is statistically verified by a Mann-Whitney test through to software R. The manipulation is repeated six times by alternating the positions of the test pots and controls to cover all six different possible combinations.

Tableau 3 : résultat sur la répulsivité de la lotion du tableau 1 vis-à-vis des puces  Table 3: Effect on the repellency of the lotion of Table 1 with respect to fleas
A chaque réplica, l'indice comportemental mesuré était inférieur à 0, donnant un indice moyen nettement inférieur à cette valeur seuil. Les puces évitent ainsi significativement les bras de l'olfactomètre contenant la lotion (Tableau 3 ; test de Wilcoxon, W=0, ^<0,01). At each replica, the behavioral index measured was less than 0, giving a mean index significantly lower than this threshold value. The chips thus significantly avoid the arms of the olfactometer containing the lotion (Table 3, Wilcoxon test, W = 0.01 <0.01).
On peut considérer que l'association synergique des ingrédients de l'agent actif constitué par le pyrèthre végétal, l'extrait de margosa et l'huile essentielle de lavandin de la composition de la présente invention formulée en lotion repousse significativement les puces. It can be considered that the synergistic combination of the ingredients of the active agent constituted by the vegetable pyrethrum, the margosa extract and the lavandin essential oil of the composition of the present invention formulated in lotion significantly repels the fleas.
Test sur les tiques : Tick test:
Pour cette expérience, des nymphes de stade IV Ixodes nâmis (Linnaeus, 1758) (Acari: Ixodidae) sont utilisées. L'étude a été menée selon le protocole inspiré de la publication de Dautel et al. ( 999). Pour ce faire, un papier filtre comportant ou non la lotion à tester (tableau 1 : environ 0,1 mL) est fixé sur un ballon rempli d'eau chaude. Une tige est placée horizontalement à environ 1 à 2 mm devant le papier filtre et une tique est déposée à environ 2 cm de son extrémité. Trois étapes comportementales sont alors notées : la tique marche jusqu'au bout de la tige (walfi), s'accroche sur le papier filtre (clin^j et se déplace sur le papier filtre sans s'en laisser tomber (stay). Douze réplicas sont réalisés pour lé contrôle et la lotion consignée au tableau 1. Pour chaque réponse comportementale, le test statistique du Chi carré est appliqué via le logiciel R, afin de comparer la significativité des réponses entre le test et le contrôle et ainsi évaluer statistiquement l'efficacité répulsive de la composition selon l'invention. For this experiment, nymphs of stage IV Ixodes nâmis (Linnaeus, 1758) (Acari: Ixodidae) are used. The study was conducted according to the protocol inspired by the publication of Dautel et al. (999). To do this, a filter paper with or without the lotion to be tested (Table 1: about 0.1 ml) is fixed on a balloon filled with hot water. A rod is placed horizontally about 1 to 2 mm in front of the filter paper and a tick is deposited about 2 cm from its end. Three behavioral steps are then noted: the tick walks to the end of the stem (walfi), clings to the filter paper (clinch) and moves on the filter paper without dropping (stay). Replicas are made for the control and lotion recorded in Table 1. For each behavioral response, the Chi square statistical test is applied via the R software, in order to compare the significance of the responses between the test and the control and thus statistically evaluate the response. repulsive efficacy of the composition according to the invention.

Tableau 4 : résultat sur la répulsivité de la composition en lotion vis-à-vis des tiques  Table 4: Result on repellency of the lotion composition with respect to ticks
La composition selon la présente invention formulée en lotion a démontré une bonne activité répulsive contre les tiques, l'accroche (clin ) et le séjour (stay) sur le stimulus en présence de la lotion en pipette étant significativement réduite comparée au contrôle (Tableau 4 ; test du Chi carré, ρ<0,0ί). The composition according to the present invention formulated in lotion has demonstrated a good repulsive activity against ticks, hang (clin) and stay (stay) on the stimulus in the presence of the pipette lotion being significantly reduced compared to control (Table 4, Chi square test, ρ <0.0ί).
En conclusion, dans les conditions de cette expérience, avec les échantillons testés et les méthodologies employées, la composition selon la présente invention a démontré une bonne action répulsive contre les puces et les tiques. In conclusion, under the conditions of this experiment, with the samples tested and the methodologies employed, the composition according to the present invention has demonstrated a good repulsive action against fleas and ticks.

Test sur les puces : Flea test:
Le protocole décrit dans l'exemple 1 a aussi été utilisé dans le présent exemple pour tester l'effet de chacun des ingrédients actifs sur les puces. The protocol described in Example 1 was also used in this example to test the effect of each of the active ingredients on the chips.
Test sur les tiques : Tick test:
Le test d'évaluation a été effectué conformément au protocole décrit par Krober et al, (2013). Pour résumer la méthode, environ 0,1 mL de solution (ingrédient actif dissout dans huile végétale) à tester est appliquée sur un cercle (diamètre 13 cm) dessiné sur une plaque de verre inclinée et chauffée. Après 5 minutes, deux tiques testées simultanément sont placées sur un disque en alui iinium (diamètre 3 cm) positionné au centre de la zone traitée. Le comportement de chaque tique est alors observé: si elle monte la plaque de verre, la solution est considérée comme ineffective alors que si elle se laisse tomber ou redescend la plaque de verre, la solution est considérée comme répulsive. Douze réplicas pour chaque solution et le contrôle sont réalisés et le pourcentage moyen de répulsion efficace est ensuite calculé.  The evaluation test was performed according to the protocol described by Krober et al. (2013). To summarize the method, approximately 0.1 mL of solution (active ingredient dissolved in vegetable oil) to be tested is applied on a circle (diameter 13 cm) drawn on a sloped glass plate and heated. After 5 minutes, two ticks tested simultaneously are placed on a disk of aluminum (3 cm diameter) positioned in the center of the treated area. The behavior of each tick is then observed: if it rises the glass plate, the solution is considered ineffective whereas if it drops or drops the glass plate, the solution is considered repulsive. Twelve replicas for each solution and control are made and the average percentage of effective repulsion is then calculated.
Résultat sur les tiques : (n= 12 réplicas) Result on ticks: (n = 12 replicas)
Le tableau 5 ci-dessous montre les résultats résumant l'activité répulsive, envers les tiques, de chacun des ingrédients de l'agent actif de la composition de la présente invention en solution.

En conclusion, dans les conditions de cette expérience, avec les échantillons testés et les méthodologies employées, on observe que le pyrèthre végétal à 0,1 % induit 100% d'effet répulsif envers les tiques (Tableau 5); alors qu'à une quantité bien plus élevée de 5%, il ne provoque aucun effet répulsif envers les puces (Tableau 6). En revanche, l'huile essentielle de lavandin qui donne de faibles résultats répulsifs sur les tiques à 1 % (Tableau 5) donne de très bons résultats de répulsivité sur les puces à 5% (Tableau 6 ; test de Wilcoxon, W:=0, i<0,01). In conclusion, under the conditions of this experiment, with the samples tested and the methodologies employed, it is observed that the vegetable pyrethrum 0.1% induces 100% repellent effect against ticks (Table 5); while at a much higher amount of 5%, it does not cause any repellent effect on fleas (Table 6). In contrast, the essential oil of lavender which gives low results repellents on 1% tick (Table 5) gives very good results of repellency on the chips 5% (Table 6; Wilcoxon test, W: = 0 , <0.01).
Exemple 3 : Effet insecticide de chacun des ingrédients de l'agent actif de la composition sur les puces. Example 3: Insecticidal effect of each of the ingredients of the active agent of the composition on fleas.
L'étude de l'évaluation de l'effet insecticide est menée selon un protocole basé sur les recommandations de la réglementation biocide PT18 (EC 2012) et de l'Organisation Mondiale de la Santé (OMS, 1981). Trois groupes de puces mâles et trois groupes de puces femelles ont été testés pour chaque produit et la mortalité a été vérifiée à 24 heures, comme réclamé par la réglementation biocide (EC 2012). The study of the evaluation of the insecticidal effect is conducted according to a protocol based on the recommendations of the PT18 biocidal regulation (EC 2012) and the World Health Organization (WHO, 1981). Three groups of male fleas and three groups of female fleas were tested for each product and the mortality was verified at 24 hours, as required by the biocidal regulation (EC 2012).
Les ingrédients de l'agent actif testés, pour un volume de 500 uL chacun, sont le pyrèthre végétal, l'huile essentielle de lavandin, l'extrait de margosa et une lotion contenant un mélange de 2,1 μΧ, de pyrèthre végétal, 7,7 uL d'huile essentielle de lavandin, 7,7 μΕ d'extrait de margosa et 482,5
