Eficacia en campo de un repelente con base en para-mentano-3,8-diol y aceite de limonaria contra Culicoides pachymerus (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) en Colombia

Abstract: Introducción. Culicoides pachymerus, por sus picaduras, ocasiona una grave molestia sanitaria en la población del occidente del departamento de Boyacá (Colombia). Objetivo. Evaluar de forma preliminar en campo el efecto de una loción repelente con ingredientes activos de origen natural (p-mentano-3,8-diol 16 % y aceite de limonaria 2 %) contra las picaduras de C. pachymerus. Materiales y métodos. En parejas de voluntarios ubicadas en el peridomicilio, se comparó simultáneamente la loción repelente con un contr… Show more

“…El experimento de repelencia se realizó durante 14 días en un periodo de 5 semanas (tres días consecutivos por semana -jueves, viernes y sábado) (Santamaría et al, 2012). En cada día se evaluó el efecto repelente por cuatro veces (06:15, 07:00.…”

“…Similarly, a Neem repellent (extracted from Azadirachta indica A. Juss; Meliaceae) for human protection against C. impunctatus also showed an antilanding and anti-feeding effect on adults of a colony of Culicoides nubeculosus and field-collected C. impunctatus (Blackwell et al 2004). Other examples of tested repellents against human-biting Culicoides were found in Scotland, where tested human-derived odours against C. impunctatus; in Australia where Greive et al (2010) tested Melaleuca oil against C. ornatus and C. immaculatus and in Colombia where para-mentano-3,8-diol and limonaria oil was tested against Culicoides pachymerus Lutz ( Santamaría et al 2012). None of the current plant-derived repellents are routinely used against Culicoides and no information is available about their use in a BTV outbreak scenario.…”

“…Repellents for protecting humans have been further explored in comparison to those for application on animals. Examples of current works conducted on repellents for humans include species which are not major vectors of BTV, such those conducted in Scotland against C. impunctatus (Logan et al., ), in Australia against C. ornatus and Culicoides immaculatus (Greive et al., ) and in Colombia against Culicoides pachymerus (Santamaría et al., ). In regards to research of repellents for animals, most of the studies have been conducted in laboratory testing the repellence of several organic acids compounds on Y‐tubes or using light traps as a proxy to animals attraction to Culicoides (Venter et al., ; Gonzalez et al., ).…”
