Experimental infection of Anopheles sinensis with Korean isolates of Plasmodium vivax [PDF]

The Korean Journal of Parasitology, 2001
The objectives of the present study were to (1) determine the susceptibility of Anopheles sinensis to Korean isolates of Plasmodium vivax, (2) establish a method to collect large quantities of P. vivax sporozoites for use as antigen in seroepidemiological studies, and (3) investigate the characteristics of Korean isolates of P.

Malaria transmission and vector behaviour in a forested malaria focus in central Vietnam and the implications for vector control [PDF]

, 2010
BACKGROUND: In Vietnam, malaria is becoming progressively restricted to specific foci where human and vector characteristics alter the known malaria epidemiology, urging for alternative or adapted control strategies.

Insecticide Resistance in Areas Under Investigation by the International Centers of Excellence for Malaria Research: A Challenge for Malaria Control and Elimination [PDF]

, 2015
Scale-up of the main vector control interventions, residual insecticides sprayed on walls or structures and/or impregnated in bed nets, together with prompt diagnosis and effective treatment, have led to a global reduction in malaria transmission ...

Modeling of re-emerging Plasmodium vivax in the Northern Area of the Republic of Korea Based on a Mathematical Model [PDF]

, 2006
Plasmodium vivax re-emerged in 1993 near the demilitarized zone (DMZ) in South Korea, although P. vivax malaria disappeared in South Korea in 1979. The re-emergence of malaria in South Korea is believed to have originated from infection by mosquitoes ...
