Natural product chemistry and testing for mosquito repellents

John P. Smith, smith_j@popmail.firn.edu, Florida A&M University, JAMS Public Health Entomology Research & Education Center, 4000 Frankford Avenue, Panama City, FL and Essam Enan, essam.enan@Vanderbilt.Edu, Vanderbilt University, Biochemistry, 607 Light Hall, Nashville, TN.

A modified K&D module technique was employed to screen several experimental natural product repellent formulations for efficacy compared to DEET and an untreated control. Repellency was measured up to 27 times for each formulation at 5 post-treatment time intervals. Results from four separate studies will be summarized in side by side formulation repellency charts.


Species 1: Diptera Culicidae Culex quinquefasciatus (Southern House Mosquito)
