WHO, likewise, advised using repellents containing contain DEET (N, N-diethyl-3-methylbenzamide), IR3535 (3-[N-acetyl-N-butyl]-aminopropionic acid ethyl ester) or
icaridin (1-piperidinecarboxylic acid, 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-methylpropylester).
Similar synergism was also observed in a test tunnel apparatus when DEET of another insect repellent (hydroxyethyl isobutyl piperidine carboxylate [also known as
icaridin of KBR 3023]) was mixed with an organophosphate (OP; pirimiphos methyl [PM]) on mosquito nets baited with guinea pigs (13).
The report takes a closer look at the demand dynamics of various composition types in the home insecticides market such as N,N-diethyl-meta-Tolua mide (DEET), hydroxyethyl isobutyl piper dine carboxylate (picaridin or
icaridin), geraniol, and citronella oil.
