Oleoyl proline is an N-acyl amine that can be detected in bovine brain extracts and D. melanogaster larvae using mass spectrometry. In a preclinical model of pain, mice lacking fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH KO) had decreased N-oleoyl proline levels in
Albaspidin AA displays strong antibacterial activity against the vegetative form of P. larvae (MIC ranging from 0.168-220 uM). It may have in vitro nematocidal activity against L4 stage larvae.
Leucanicidin is a macrolide bacterial metabolite originally isolated from S. halstedii. It is toxic to L. separata fourth instar larvae when used at a concentration of 20 ppm and to H. contortus, T. colubriformis, and O. circumcincta larvae (LD50s = 0.23-
