Nine compounds identified from honeybee,Apis mettifera L., sting extracts and one compound identified from the honeybee mandibular gland were evaluated in a standardized laboratory test for their effectiveness in eliciting an alarm response from caged honeybees. Two,n-decyl acetate and benzyl alcohol, were judged ineffective as alarm pheromones. The remaining eight-2-nonanol, isopentyl acetate,n-butyl acetate,n-hexyl acetate, benzyl acetate, isopentyl alcohol, andn-octyl acetate from the sting and 2-heptanone from the mandibular gland-produced responses of similar frequency and strength.
从蜜蜂(Apis mellifera L.)的蜇刺提取物中鉴定出的 9 种化合物和从蜜蜂下颚腺中鉴定出的 1 种化合物,在标准化的实验室测试中评估了它们对笼养蜜蜂引发报警反应的有效性。其中两种,正癸酸乙酯和苯甲醇,被判定为无效的报警信息素。其余 8 种化合物——蜇刺中的 2-壬醇、异戊酸乙酯、乙酸正丁酯、乙酸正己酯、乙酸苄酯、异戊醇和乙酸正辛酯,以及下颚腺中的 2-庚酮——产生了相似频率和强度的反应。
