چکیده
A high-throughput bioassay system to evaluate the efficacy of residual pesticides against mosquitoes and muscid flies with minimal insect handling was developed. The system consisted of 4 components made of readily available materials: 1) a CO2 anaesthetizing chamber, 2) a specialized aspirator, 3) a cylindrical flat-bottomed glass bioassay chamber assembly, and 4) a customized rack.

Introduction: Malaria is still one of the most important communicable diseases in the world. The main measure for vector control is using insecticides as residual spraying and recently impregnated bednet with pyrethroid insecticides. Comparative study on the efficacy of pyrethroid impregnated torn bed nets (lambdacyhalothrin and bifenthrin) and Deet against malaria vector, Anopheles stephensi,...

متن کاملComparisons of antifeedancy and spatial repellency of three natural product repellents against horn flies, Haematobia irritans (Diptera: Muscidae).
BACKGROUND Horn flies are among the most important biting fly pests of cattle in the United States. Horn fly management is largely dependent upon pesticides, which ultimately leads to the rapid development of insecticide resistance. Alternative control strategies, including repellents, have shown promising results in reducing fly biting. In the present study, we examined the efficacy and longev...
متن کاملResidual Effects of Permethrin Impregnated Bed Nets
The objective of this field trial was to assess the residual effectiveness of permethrin 10% treated mosquito nets on malaria control compared with untreated nets. The study was carried out between July and December 2007 in the Pong Nam Ron District of Chantaburi Province, Thailand. Mosquito population densities were assessed using the landing catch method. Mosquitoes were collected between 6:0...
متن کاملEvaluation of certain insecticides on nettings for their efficacy and wash resistance against mosquito species.
Five insecticides (Bifenthrin, Deltamethrin, Etofenprox, Permethrin and Lamda cyhalothrin) recommended by WHO, at their recommended dose were compared for their efficacy and wash resistance through bioassay against mosquito vectors, Culex quinquefasciatus, Aedes aegypti and Anopheles stephensi. Etofenprox treated nettings exhibited better knockdown and mortality than the other insecticides. The...
