It
is not surprising that Ananda Shankar Ray’s Laboratory did the initial research
to escape mosquitoes. In India, with the emergence of highly resistant mosquito
species that are unaffected by the most toxic bug killers, it has a kind of
poetic justice that an Indian associate professor of entomology has found a way
to make a human invisible to mosquitos’ most powerful hunting sense – smell.
Featured in Nature, the scientist however lives in California!
1. This discovery was quickly
turned into an innovative skin patch called the Kite mosquito patch an
inexpensive sticker, which is non-toxic patch which is now produced by olfactor
labs. It disrupts the mosquitoes carbon di-oxide detection mechanism and
protects against malaria, denque, filaria, West-Nile Virus and other deadly
diseases.
2. The human body is a
magical creation, whose continuing health, in spite of the dangers that assail,
it is really a miracle. So keep this invaluable asset each of us in gifted
with, at birth, protected against easily avoidance but deadly diseases.
