我们构建了一个嗅觉计来区分和量化对蚊子的吸引、抑制和驱避。使用该装置，测试了22种不同配方的纱布垫和8种稀释度的避蚊胺在皮肤上的作用。四种新配方被发现作为真正的驱虫剂。而避蚊胺不是真正的驱蚊剂，而是一种抑制剂。
We constructed an olfactometer that differentiates and quantifies attraction, inhibition, and repellency to mosquitoes. Using this device, 22 formulations of various chemicals on gauze pads and 8 dilutions of DEET on skin were tested. Four novel formulations were discovered acting as true repellents. whereas DEET did not act as a true repellent but as an inhibitor.
