Résumé / Abstract
A combined formulation ofthe U.S. Army's camouflage face paints and the new extended duration topical insect/arthropod repellent was tested on human volunteers to determine repellency and duration of protection (2-12 h) against Aedes aegypti and Anopheles stephensi. Under laboratory conditions (27°C and 80% RH), the face paint/repellent formulation provided ≥95°A repellency or better for up to 6 h for Ae. aegypti and 8 h for An. stephensi. An analysis of variance showed no significant differences in the repellent efficacy of the 4 camouflage colors: white, green, loam, and sand.
