Description

General description

Muscalure is an insect pheromone utilized to attract houseflies. It is generally used as a coactive ingredient in fly-bait products.[1]

Application

Muscalure may be used as an analytical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in goldenrod (Solidago canadensis L.) flower and its unifloral honey[2] and cuticles of female house flies (Musca domestica L.) by Likens-Nickerson simultaneous distillation-extraction (SDE)[3] and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).[2][3]
