Description:
Advances in Mosquito Repellents offers the most current state of knowledge on insect repellents. This area of study is fast-moving, and the evolution of novel approaches has expanded rapidly as mosquito- and tick-borne diseases become more prevalent worldwide. This book covers the discovery of new repellents, including those from natural sources, the latest on mechanisms of repellant actions, research on optimizing their uses, testing methods, and highlights of possible directions for future developments. Written by global insect repellant experts, this book begins by delving into molecule discovery and assay development, followed by the latest research and investigations of repellent developments and effects. It then offers readers a look into global field and lab trials using various insect repellants, ranging from South America to the USDA and United States Navy Entomology Department. Lastly, Advances in Mosquito Repellents examines the future of spatial repellent molecules and expert insight for further development. Advances in Mosquito Repellents is a valuable resource for entomologists and vector control researchers and practitioners. Public health officials and developers in private pest control companies, as well as readers in academia, will also find this useful to learn the latest information available on controlling the spread of insect-borne diseases with repellents. Discusses recent progress on understanding how insect repellents work, as well as modern methods for finding new molecules and formulations Led by a team of editors whose expertise includes cutting edge insect repellent research and development Serves as a reference and resource that will be useful to a wide variety of professionals, particularly those in public health and vector control
