Seriously you do a story on mosquitoes but nothing on the Criminal Bidens an Hunters Laptop to buying an sell with the China for his Dad 🤔🤦😳🤯 Makes sense
The researchers found that people who are most attractive to mosquitoes produce a lot of certain chemicals on their skin that are tied to smell.More Videos <iframe width="476" height="267" src="https://abc7chicago.More Videos <iframe width="476" height="267" src="https://abc7ny.The researchers found that people who are most attractive to mosquitoes produce a lot of certain chemicals on their skin that are tied to smell.

“If you have high levels of this stuff on your skin, you’re going to be the one at the picnic getting all the bites,” said study author Leslie Vosshall, a neurobiologist at Rockefeller University in New York. A new study finds that some people really are "mosquito magnets" and it probably has to do with the way they smell. There’s a lot of folklore about who gets bitten more but many claims aren’t backed up with strong evidence, said Vosshall.

The researchers found that people who are most attractive to mosquitoes produce a lot of certain chemicals on their skin that are tied to smell. To put mosquito magnetism to the test, the researchers designed an experiment pitting people’s scents against each other, explained study author Maria Elena De Obaldia.

The stockings were put in separate traps at the end of a long tube, then dozens of mosquitos were released. “They would basically swarm to the most attractive subjects,” De Obaldia said. Their findings were published Tuesday in the journal Cell .

“It became very obvious right away. They asked 64 volunteers from the university and nearby to wear nylon stockings around their forearms to pick up their skin smells.” Scientists held a round-robin tournament and ended up with a striking gap: The biggest mosquito magnet was around 100 times more attractive to the mosquitoes than the last-place finisher.

The experiment used the Aedes aegypti mosquito that spreads diseases like yellow fever, Zika and dengue. Vosshall said she’d expect similar results from other kinds, but would need more research to confirm. "It became very obvious right away.

"It became very obvious right away. By testing the same people over multiple years, the study showed that these big differences stick around, said Matt DeGennaro, a neurogeneticist at Florida International University who was not involved with the research. “Mosquito magnets seem to remain mosquito magnets,” DeGennaro said.

These “greasy molecules” are part of the skin’s natural moisturizing layer, and people produce them in different amounts, Vosshall said. By testing the same people over multiple years, the study showed that these big differences stick around, said Matt DeGennaro, a neurogeneticist at Florida International University who was not involved with the research. The healthy bacteria that live on the skin eat up these acids and produce part of our skin’s odor profile, she said.

You can’t get rid of these acids without damaging your skin health too, said Vosshall, who is paid by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and serves as its chief scientific officer.

You can't get rid of these acids without damaging your skin health too, said Vosshall, who is paid by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and serves as its chief scientific officer. Still, figuring out ways to fight off mosquitoes isn’t easy, Riffell said, since the critters have evolved to be “lean, mean-biting machines. The institute also supports The Associated Press' Health and Science Department.” The study proved this point: Researchers also did the experiment with mosquitoes whose genes were edited to damage their sense of smell.
