Journal ArticleDOI

Human skin volatiles: a review

TL;DR: This work details the different sampling techniques, each with its own set of advantages and disadvantages, which have been used for the collection of skin odors from different parts of the human body, and presents the main skin volatile compounds found in studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficacy of vector control tools against malaria-infected mosquitoes

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the effect of infection with the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum on the efficacy of nets treated with either the insecticide deltamethrin or the repellent DEET, measuring the success to pass through the net, blood-feeding on a host and chemicals-induced mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of dung volatiles on the process of resource selection by coprophagous beetles

TL;DR: In this study, trophic preferences were examined using blocks of pitfall traps baited with dung from four different herbivore species, i.e., sheep, cattle, horse, and red deer, in a mountainous area of south-central France.
Journal ArticleDOI

Innate olfactory preferences in dung beetles

TL;DR: The results suggest that resource selection in coprophagous insects may be based on innate olfactory preferences, and further experiments should examine whether Agrilinus adults can learn new dung odours, and whether larval diet may influence the behaviour of adults in other coprophageous species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trophic Preferences Mediated by Olfactory Cues in Dung Beetles Colonizing Cattle and Horse Dung

TL;DR: Investigation of trophic preferences in Mediterranean dung beetles colonizing cattle and horse dung found that beetles were attracted to volatiles from the dung type they preferred in the field, and the reasons why coprophagous beetles show local feeding preferences for particular dung types are discussed.
