Malaria Fought By Changing The Way We Taste?



A study on malaria-bearing mosquitos suggests, the creation of new repellants that alter the "flavor" of human beings can save up to 450,000 lives per year. The study identified various ways in which mosquitos find themselves attracted to human blood. It was conducted by Johns Hopkins researchers. The findings were published online in the journal Nature Communications. Christopher Potter said in a press release, "That finding suggests that perhaps mosquitoes don't just like our smell, but also our flavor. It's likely that the odorants coming off our skin are picked up by the labella and influence the preferred taste of our skin, especially when the mosquito is looking for a place to bite." http://bit.ly/2dWMv0g http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com
