Abstract
Isolation and identification of 2-phenoxyethanol from a ballpoint pen ink as a termite trail-following substance was accomplished by using t rail-following bioassays, column chromatography, high performance liqu id chromatography, and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. This chem ical elicited trail-following in both C. formosanus Shiraki and Reticu litermes sp.
