چکیده

In the modern world, with regards to the improvements in human life style and breakthroughs in medical sciences, vectorborne diseases such as malaria are still as public health challenge worldwide [1]. The most important reason is related to the movement capability of the vectors. Therefore, pathogens can be transported throughout the world [2]. Malaria is caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Plasmodium and transmitted to humans through the infected female Anopheles mosquito’s bites [3,4]. According to the WHO malaria report, in 2013, it has been estimated that 3.3 billion people are at risk of malaria infection and 1.2 billion are at high risk for this malignant malady. Furthermore, there were an estimated 584 000 out of 198 million cases of malaria happened entire of world led to deaths in 2013. In addition, malaria is the cause of more than 430 000 child’s deaths in Africa annually [5,6].
