Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure relates to deodorizing compounds and compositions for use in methods of repelling insects and methods of reducing or preventing the transmission of mosquito-borne pathogens.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A method of repelling an insect, comprising applying to a subject a composition in an amount effective to repel said insect; wherein said composition comprises Formula I: wherein R comprises a mixture of C 16 -C 18 unsubstituted alkyl and C 16 -C 18 unsubstituted alkenyl groups; and wherein the composition does not comprise thymol or carvacrol. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition is applied at a concentration of 1-15%. 3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the composition is applied at a concentration of 3-9%. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the insect is a mosquito. 5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the mosquito is selected from an Aedes, Culex , or Anopheles mosquito. 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject is a human.
