OverviewAI-generated summary
Tanja McKay's research focuses on pest management and food quality, with a particular emphasis on stored product insects and rice. She has investigated the efficacy of long-lasting insecticide-incorporated netting and interception traps in preventing infestations in warehouses and commercial facilities. Her work also explores the combination of residual contact insecticides with netting to reduce insect dispersal and damage. McKay has assessed the impact of microwave and infrared radiation treatments on rice quality, including germination and the mortality of pests like the maize weevil. Additionally, her research interests extend to vector control approaches for canine filariasis and the molecular detection of pathogens in insects associated with agricultural facilities. She has published 41 papers, accumulating 664 citations and an h-index of 15. McKay collaborates with researchers from the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station, including Griffiths G. Atungulu, Evans Ameyaw Owusu, Kaushik Luthra, and Allen L. Szalanski.
