Multi-Modal Effects of the Repellent Deet Across Protostomia [PDF]
, 2018 DEET (N, N-diethyl-m-toluamide) is the most broadly effective and widely used personal repellent available, yet we do not understand what makes it so effective. Even in well-studied species like Drosophila melanogaster flies and Aedes aegypti mosquitoes,

Who’s afraid of DEET? Fearmongering in papers on botanical repellents
Malaria Journal, 2020 DEET (N,N-Diethyl-meta-toluamide) is considered the gold standard in mosquito repellents, not only for its effectiveness, but also for its safety. DEET has been more extensively studied for safety than any other repellent, and is accepted as completely ...

N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide (DEET) exposure produces rapid and permanent damage in turfgrass
Ecotoxicology and Environmental SafetyDespite anecdotal evidence that suggests bug sprays containing N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide (DEET) damage turfgrasses, there is minimal peer-reviewed research investigating this in detail.

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 6, Page 1360-1384, 15 September 2026.ABSTRACT Pediatric cancer is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in children. The etiologies of pediatric cancer are largely unknown, but environmental pesticide exposures are likely to contribute. Chronic low‐dose exposure to pesticide mixtures through drinking water is a growing concern in agricultural communities.

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT After hybrid surgical ablation of atrial fibrillation, a 73‐year‐old‐man underwent pulmonary vein isolation, roof, and anterior mitral line using Farapulse. He developed atypical atrial flutter from reconnection of the anterior mitral line; four “stamps” were applied along the line with immediate termination and no recurrence at 1 year.

Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 7, July 2026.This manuscript explores empirical linkages between a suite of concentrations of chemicals of emerging concern (CEC) and hydroclimatological and spatial watershed characteristics. Our analysis was carried out at the regional scale allowing us to explore how complex patterns of land use relate to CEC concentrations.

Risk assessments for the insect repellents DEET and picaridin [PDF]
Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2008 For the use of topical insect repellents, DEET and picaridin, human health risk assessments were conducted for various population subgroups. Acute, subchronic, and chronic dermal exposures were examined. No-observed-effect-levels (NOELs) of 200, 300, and 100mg/kg body weight (BW) were used as endpoints for DEET for acute, subchronic, and chronic ...

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 6842-6863, July 2026.A two‐pronged screen of small molecules – (1) on recombinant kinin receptor and (2) through topical application – identifies kinin receptor antagonists, feeding behavior modulators, and new mosquitocidal molecules. Abstract BACKGROUND Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes are primary vectors for numerous human and animal pathogens and ...

An investigation of DEET-insensitivity in Aedes aegypti [PDF]
, 2011 N,N-Diethyl-m-toluamide (DEET) is one of the most effective and commonly used mosquito repellents. However, during laboratory trials a small proportion of mosquitoes are still attracted by human odours despite the presence of DEET.
