Bombardier beetle based biosensor
Biosensors and Bioelectronics, 1996 A biosensor constructed by combining an oxygen electrode with the liquid ejected by bombardier beetles (Pheropsophus aequinoctialis) immobolized on a collagen membrane is developed for hydrogen peroxide. The sensor presents a linear range of 2.0 x 10(-4)-2.0 x 10(-3) M and a reproductibility of approximately 2%.

Spray mechanism of crepidogastrine bombardier beetles (Carabidae; Crepidogastrini)
Chemoecology, 2001The defensive glandular apparatus of primitive bombardier beetles of the tribe Crepidogastrini (Carabidae) is described for the first time. As exemplified by two African species (Crepidogaster ambreana and C. atrata), the apparatus conforms to the basic bombardier plan, in that the glands are bicompartmented and the secretion is quinonoid (it contains ...

Bombardier beetles are well-known for their remarkable defensive mechanism. Their defensive apparatus consists of two compartments known as the reservoir and the reaction chamber. When challenged, muscles surrounding the reservoir contract sending chemical precursors into the reaction chamber where they mix with enzymes resulting in an explosive ...

This paper provides the first comparative anatomical study of the explosive pygidial defensive system of bombardier beetles in species classified in three brachinine subtribes: Brachinus (Brachinina), Pheropsophus (Pheropsophina) and Aptinus (Aptinina).

Metrius contractus, a primitive paussoid bombardier beetle, emits its defensive quinonoid froth with accompanying sound (a faint “hiss”), but the sound is not pulsed, indicating that the secretory emission itself is not pulsed. Pulsed secretory delivery in bombardier beetles appears to occur in Brachinini only.
