Petri dish choice tests conducted on the coffee berry borer (CBB),Hypothenemus hampei, showed that females were able to discriminate between coffee berries at different ripening stages. A Y-shaped glass olfactometer was used to demonstrate that coffee berries emitted volatile chemicals that elicited upwind movement by female CBB. Olfactometer tests with three different solvent extracts of berries showed that at least some of the attractive chemical(s) released by the coffee berries could be extracted with acetone.
对咖啡果蛀果象（Hypothenemus hampei）进行的 Petri 盘选择测试表明，雌虫能够区分不同成熟阶段的咖啡浆果。使用 Y 型玻璃嗅觉计证明咖啡浆果释放出挥发性化学物质，吸引雌虫向咖啡浆果方向移动。使用三种不同溶剂提取浆果的嗅觉计测试表明，至少有一些咖啡浆果释放的有吸引力的化学物质可以用丙酮提取。
