Abstract

Abstract Means of analyzing trimedlure, medlure, siglure, butyl sorbate, cue-lure, and methyleugenol by gas chromatography have been devised to ensure the procurement of high quality attractants needed for the detection of insect pests, especially those invading noninfested areas. The methods permit the estimation of the 4 trans isomers present in commercially produced trimedlure and medlure, and of the cis and trans isomers of siglure. Commercially available butyl sorbate gives a single sharp peak and is supposed to be the trans, trans isomer. Cue-lure and methyleugenol each give a single peak.
