Development of new personal repellents to prevent tick bites is progressing to keep up with the increasing threat of tick‐borne diseases in humans. However, the market share of natural, plant‐based repellents is still quite small. We tested all of the major (>1%) components found in the essential oils of rosemary (Spanish variety) and nutmeg. These were tested with Dermacentor variabilis ticks, a robust tick capable of vectoring human diseases, in a no‐human horizontal Petri dish assay. For comparison, we also tested the active ingredients currently recommended by the CDC and EPA as personal repellents for use against ticks.

在无人分析中,迷迭香或肉豆蔻精油中发现的三种分子比DEET更有效地驱除tick虫(Dermacentor variabilis)

防止tick虫叮咬的新的个人驱蚊剂的开发正在跟上人类of传播疾病的威胁。但是,天然植物性驱虫剂的市场份额仍然很小。我们测试了迷迭香(西班牙品种)和肉豆蔻精油中发现的所有主要成分(> 1%)。在无人水平皮氏培养皿测定中,用Dermacentor variabilis s进行了测试,后者是一种能够传染人类疾病的坚固tick。为了进行比较,我们还测试了CDC和EPA当前推荐的有效活性成分,作为对抗虱子的个人驱虫剂。
