Abstract

Flying blood-sucking insects widely distributed on the territory of the Russian Federation. Mosquitoes pose a high epidemiological hazard being vectors of many infectious diseases, for example, West Nile fever. Children are one the most vulnerable category of population when attacked by flying blood-sucking insects. Toxicity and hazard of repellent products in different formulations based on 10 % ethyl butylacetylaminopropionate were studied. In connection with the need of the population to protect their children from mosquito bites, it is relevant to evaluate repellent products intended for use on children under one year old. The harmful effects were revealed in the study of the skin-resorptive action of repellent products in doses exceeding the consumption rate by 30 and 50 times, manifested by a change in the state of the nervous system, liver function and a decrease in red blood parameters.
