Hello Justin,
found your message very informative. Thankyou. I don't have access to a
hard copy version of the J. Chem. Ecology. I did find a site that listed
all the articles published by the journal, for some reason though It missed
listing quite a few pages including the one with the article. Do you have
access to an electronic version, or an email address of any of the authors?
I would really like to read the article.

I understand this. 1 part cit by vol, 1 part ger by vol.
I don't understand this 1 part ner+geran acids. Does this mean 4 equal
parts of the 4 ingredients or does it mean a half and half ner/ger mix
constitutes one part of a 3 part mix.

This tells me that it should be a three part mix with the two acids making
up one of the three parts. Please clarify though.
thanks,
Christopher
