This invention provides a method for repelling biting insects such as
mosquitoes by topically applying to the skin of a subject emu
oil, fractions of emu oil obtained by flash chromatography or a composition
comprising emu oil and citronella. Also provided are methods
for repelling biting insects by topically applying diluted fractions of emu
oil. The invention also provides a compound useful in repelling
biting insects having the NMR spectrum of Figure 3, that is ultraviolet light
sensitive and is reactive to vanillin/sulfuric acid. Also provided
are compounds useful in repelling biting insects having the NMR spectrum of
Figure 4, that is not ultraviolet light sensitive and is not
reactive to vanillin/sulfuric acid. A composition for repelling biting insects
comprising emu oil and citronella is further provided.
Procédé permettant de repousser les insectes piqueurs tels que les moustiques par l'application topique sur la peau d'un sujet d'huile d'ému, de fractions d'huile d'ému obtenues par chromatographie éclair ou d'une composition constituée d'huile d'ému et de citronnelle. Sont également décrits des procédés permettant de repousser les insectes piqueurs par une application topique de fractions diluées d'huile d'ému. L'invention porte également sur un composé servant à repousser les insectes piqueurs présentant le spectre de résonance magnétique nucléaire de la figure 3, c'est-à-dire sensibles à la lumière ultraviolette et réagissant à la vanilline et à l'acide sulfurique. Sont également décrits des composés servant à repousser les insectes piqueurs présentant le spectre de résonance magnétique nucléaire de la figure 4, c'est-à-dire non sensibles à la lumière ultraviolette et ne réagissant pas à la vanilline et à l'acide sulfurique. Une composition servant à repousser les insectes piqueurs comprenant de l'huile d'ému et de citronnelle est également décrite.
