A research group led by McIntosh has developed a spray technology known as µMist. It was inspired by the toxic gas which the [[bombardier beetle]] can emit to defend itself. This work was recognized as an "outstanding contribution to innovation and technology" by ''Times Higher Education'' at an award ceremony in London in 2010.<ref>[http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-11959381 BBC News "Beetle defence inspires University of Leeds research"], ''[[BBC News]]'', 9 December 2010</ref>
