NO BUG: Biobased mosquitoes repellent Personal protective equipment (PPE) L. Ciera*, V.A. Nierstrasz, L. Van Langenhove Department of Textiles, Ghent University Technologiepark 907, 9052 Zwijnaarde / Gent, Belgium Introduction This research work is part of the FP7 No-Bug project (Novel release system and biobased utilities for insect repellent textiles). The main interest of the project is personal protective textiles against insects (mosquitoes) for application not only in tropical areas where vector borne diseases are a major threat to the public health but also in European countries where the presence of mosquitoes can be nuisance. Target Mosquitoes Target group:- Professional travelers Peace corps Reseachers Anopheles stephensi Aedes aegypti Current Repellents Synthetic Harmful to user and environment Increasing resistance Uncontrolled release system Re-treatment is necessary Novel Bio-Repellents Biological origin Environmental and user friendly High efficaccy to last atleast 50 washes Slow release systems No re-treatment required Missonaries/ Volunteers Business people The NO BUG Consortium 1.
