Study of irritant effect of permethrin impregnated nets on pyrethroid resistant and susceptible genotypes of the mosquito anopheles stephensi
pyrethroid-impregnated bednets have been shown to be one of the most promising tools that have emerged in recent years to control malaria.mosquito may be physically irritated by pyrethroid reducing the time searching for blood meals,or driving them away.permethrin impregnated nets also may deter a proportion of mosquitoes from entering houses.irritant effect of nets treated with 200 mg and 500...
متن کاملAn Integrated Bayesian Modelling Approach for Predicting Mosquito Larval Habitats
Malaria is the leading cause of death in Kenya highlands. Malaria is a vector-borne disease and mosquito is the vector that transmits the parasites from infected people to others. Controlling mosquito larval habitats is important in eradicating malaria. Modeling the spatially distributed mosquito larval habitats is challenging. This study explores a mosquito habitat modeling approach, which int...
متن کاملAnopheles mosquito transmission of brain tumor.
Some investigators have postulated a viral cause of malignant glioma, possibly SV40 [Miller G. Brain cancer. A viral link to glioblastoma? Science 2009;323(5910):30-1] or cytomegalovirus (CMV). A source of other brain tumor viruses might be the anopheles mosquito, the vector of malaria. Evidence of an association of anopheles with brain tumors can be found in the relationship between malaria ou...

متن کاملRecent research on impregnated mosquito nets.
The present status of impregnated mosquito nets and other impregnated materials is discussed. Research projects which have produced most of the publications on this subject were conducted in areas in Africa with relatively high endemicity of malaria. In these areas, usage of impregnated mosquito nets caused substantial reductions in the sporozoite inoculation rates and some reduction in inciden...
