  abstract = {{T}extile materials treated with synthetic repellents have the potential to provide protection against insect disease vectors but lack the residual activity necessary to achieve a prolonged effect or to be cost-effective. {DEET} {MC} is a formulation of {DEET} ({N},{N} diethyl-m-toluamide) in which the repellent is gradually released from a capsule that binds the repellent. {A}n experiment carried out on {DEET}-treated mosquito netting showed that the formulation repels, inhibits blood-feeding and kilts mosquitoes for a period of at least 6 months under laboratory conditions. {S}uch formulations may have the potential for use on nets against pyrethroid-resistant mosquitoes or on clothing or bedding materials distributed in disasters, emergencies or refugee camp situations.},
