The Effect Of Giving Patchouli Oil (Oleum Pogostemon Cablin Benth) On The Mortality Time Of Boophilus Microplus Tick In Cow Universitas Hasanuddin Abstract This study aimed to determine patchouli oil^s effect on the mortality time of Boophilus microplus ticks in cattle. Materials and methods in this study used 24 ticks and divided into eight groups: the positive control group (K +) used cypermethrin, the negative control group (K-) used hexane, Patchouli Oil 5% Group (MN 5%), Patchouli Oil 5% Interval Group (MN 5% Int), Patchouli Oil 10% Group (MN 10%), Patchouli Oil 10% Interval Group (MN 10% Int), Patchouli Oil 20% Group (MN 20%), and Patchouli Oil 20% Interval Group (MN 20% Int) six groups used patchouli oil with different concentrations and treated for 6 hours in vitro. The results showed that the K+ group tick started to die in the first hours while the K- group there were no tick deaths. The MN 5% group of the deaths occurred at the fourth hours, the MN 5% Int group deaths happened at the fourth hours, MN 10% Group had deaths at the third hours, MN 10% Int Group died of ticks at three hours, and MN 20% and MN 20% Int Group killed at the first hours, with a total death is three tick each group. Giving patchouli oil to see the mortality rate of the ticks carried out in vitro has a good effect or can kill the ticks at a concentration of 5%, 10%, and 20%, with the highest time of tick death occurring at a concentration of 20%, namely in the MN 20% and MN 20% Int groups.
