A field bioassay evaluating candidate chemicals as aerial repellents was developed and evaluated against natural mosquito populations in Beltsville, MD. The bioassay consisted of an attractive source surrounded by a grid of 16 septa containing a volatile candidate aerial repellent, compared with an attractive source without such a grid. The attractive source was a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention light trap supplemented with carbon dioxide. Significant sources of variation included weather, position, and the differential response of mosquito species. Despite these sources of variation, significant repellent responses were obtained for catnip oil, E,Z-dihydronepetalactone, and DEET.
开发了一种现场生物测定法，用于评估候选化学物质作为空气驱避剂的效果，并在马里兰州贝尔茨维尔针对自然蚊虫种群进行了评估。该生物测定法包括一个有吸引力的源头，其周围有一个由16个隔片组成的网格，隔片中含有挥发性候选空气驱避剂，与之对比的是一个没有这种网格的有吸引力的源头。有吸引力的源头是一个补充了二氧化碳的疾病控制与预防中心诱蚊灯。变异的重要来源包括天气、位置以及蚊虫种类的不同反应。尽管存在这些变异来源，但对于猫薄荷油、E,Z-二氢假荆芥内酯和避蚊胺，仍获得了显著的驱避反应。
