QSAR study of mosquito repellents using Codessa Pro

Protection times provided by 31 synthetic repellents against Aedes aegypti mosquitoes were correlated with the chemical structures of these repellents using Codessa Pro software. Two statistically significant quantitative models with R2 values of ca. 0.80 are presented and discussed.

A QSAR treatment has been applied to a data set consists of 31 protection times for the repellents. A good 4-parameter model was found including the vapor pressure as external descriptor.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
