Judging Criteria
Diseases transmitted by insect vectors, such as malaria and dengue, affect significantly the Brazilian population. In our city, São Carlos, this year in summer the public health organ featured a big number of cases. Working in this problem, our project consists in the development of an alternative repellent of that currently sold in the market and more or equally effective in preventing mosquitoes bites transmitted diseases. The main compound in current repellents is DEET (N, N-diethyl-m-toluamide), a toxic molecule which at certain concentrations could be lethal, and therefore must have strict control on their use in products. The main characteristic of our repellent is the long duration when compared to other products and the replacement of the compound DEET by D-limonene. Instead, the D-limonene has low toxicity, is highly volatile and present a pleasant smell.
