DOI: 10.1007/s00436-024-08118-z

Abstract: Effective mosquito repellents can limit the transmission of vector-borne diseases to humans. Consequently, there is an urgent need to develop mosquito control strategies that prioritize eco-friendly and cost-effective repellents. Essential oils (EOs) have enormous potential… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cis.2017.01.004

Abstract: Nature provides inspiration for liquid-repellant and low-adhesive surfaces, such as the lotus leaf and pitcher plant. While water-repellency is frequently found in nature, oil-repellency and surfactant-repellency are uncommon to nonexistent. To obtain oil- and surfactant-repellency,… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2017 at "Geoderma"

DOI: 10.1016/j.geoderma.2016.11.032

Abstract: Abstract Wetting patterns produced by water repellent soils are able to preferentially channel moisture deep into the soil profile, minimising storage in surface layers where it is most susceptible to evaporative loss. Although this effect… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/chemse/bjaf021

Abstract: Insect-borne diseases kill >0.5 million people annually. Currently available repellents for personal or household protection are limited in their efficacy, applicability, and safety profile. Here, we describe a machine-learning-driven high-throughput method for the discovery of… read more here.
