Abstract
Four mosquito repellents, product A (aerosol), product B (liquid), product C (aerosol) and product D (lotion) were tested for their persistent repellency and quantity of DEET remained with the lapse was analyzed. In shirt term test with human (or 8 hours, product A (aerosol), product B (liquid), product C (aerosol) and product D (lotion) appeared over 95% repellency for eight, five, six and six hours. respectively. In long-term tests with shirt piece for 16 days, product A (aerosol) and product C (aerosol) showed 100% repellency for 10 days. In the assay of quantity of DEET remained in shirt pieces with the lapse of time, two products was decreased to the same pattern.
