Novel collection method for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from dogs

Journal of Chromatography B, 2017
Host derived chemical cues are an important aspect of arthropod attraction to potential hosts. Host cues that act over longer distances include CO2, heat, and water vapor, while cues such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) act over closer distances.
