Hydrocarbons of Rhodnius prolixus, a Chagas disease vector.

Comparative biochemistry and physiology. Part B, Biochemistry & molecular biology - 1 Jul 2001

Juárez P, Blomquist G J, Schofield C J

Abstract excerpt

The surface hydrocarbons of the blood-sucking insect, Rhodnius prolixus, a major Chagas disease vector in Venezuela, Colombia and Central America, were characterized by capillary gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (CGC-MS). A total of 54 single or multicomponent peaks of saturated, straight-chain and methyl-branched hydrocarbons were identified. Major n-alkanes were n-C27, n-C29, n-C31 and n-C33...
