Olfactometric Evaluation of Spatial Repellents for <i>Aedes aegypti</i>
The spatial repellency responses of Aedes aegypti (L.) to deet, dehydrolinalool and linalool were evaluated using a dual port olfactometer. In the absence of human attractant mixture, each of the three chemicals resulted in activation and/or orientation of mosquitoes to the chemical source. Linalool was the most attractive compound. In the presence of human attractant mixture, activation and/or...

متن کاملComparative Study of Four Membranes for Evaluation of New Insect/Arthropod Repellents Using Aedes aegypti
Repellent use is one of the most effective personal protection measures in reducing bites of blood-sucking insects/ arthropods and preventing vectorborne disease transmission. Tmditionally. discovery of new repellents involves initial screening of thousands of candidates using various methods with very few successes. However. despite the obvious desirability of finding an effective mosquito rep...
متن کاملDifferent Repellents for Aedes aegypti against Blood-Feeding and Oviposition
Methyl N,N-dimethyl anthranilate (MDA), ethyl anthranilate (EA) and butyl anthranilate (BA) were previously shown to repel Aedes aegypti mosquitoes from landing on human skin. However, the effect of these compounds on the orientation of flying mosquitoes in a choice situation and their effect on mosquito oviposition are not yet known. Here, we used a modified Y-tube olfactometer to test the eff...
متن کاملRepellents Inhibit P450 Enzymes in Stegomyia (Aedes) aegypti
The primary defence against mosquitoes and other disease vectors is often the application of a repellent. Despite their common use, the mechanism(s) underlying the activity of repellents is not fully understood, with even the mode of action of DEET having been reported to be via different mechanisms; e.g. interference with olfactory receptor neurones or actively detected by olfactory receptor n...
