Identifiying High Risk Areas of Zika Virus Infection by Meteorological Factors in Columbia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background Several Zika virus (ZIKV) outbreaks have occurred since October 2015. Because there is no effective treatment for ZIKV infection, developing an effective surveillance and warning system is currently a high priority to prevent ZIKV infection ...

Zika, chikungunya and dengue: the causes and threats of new and re-emerging arboviral diseases

open access: yesBMJ Global Health, 2017
The recent emergence and re-emergence of viral infections transmitted by vectors—Zika, chikungunya, dengue, Japanese encephalitis, West Nile, yellow fever and others—is a cause for international concern. Using as examples Zika, chikungunya and dengue, we

Bee products as alternatives in the treatment of viral infections

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 1, Page 33-54, 15 January 2026.
Abstract Medicines used in the treatment of viral infections usually reduce symptoms. There is a need to develop drugs that inhibit the viruses and do not merely relieve the symptoms. Natural bee products possess many pharmacological properties and are widely used in folk medicine. There are many studies on the antibacterial effects of bee products but

Vector control for the chikungunya disease: chemical control versus biological control: a mathematical point of view. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The aim of this talk is to present recent investigations on the Chikungunya Disease that hitted Réunion Island, a French territory in Indian Ocean, in 2005 and 2006. Chikungunya is a vectorborne Disease, usually localized in Asia and East-Africa. In 2005,

Wolbachia versus dengue: Evolutionary forecasts. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A novel form of biological control is being applied to the dengue virus. The agent is the maternally transmitted bacterium Wolbachia, naturally absent from the main dengue vector, the mosquito Aedes aegypti.

Cryopreservation of Anopheles gambiae Larvae

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, Volume 10, Issue 1, January 2026.
Advancements in vector control methods have resulted in a rapidly growing collection of critically important mosquito strains necessitating the development of cryopreservation protocols to minimize the risk of genetic drift, cross‐contamination, or catastrophic loss.

Awareness towards Chikungunya virus infection risk by general practitioners in Rome: a questionnaire based survey before the 2017 outbreak [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Autochthonous cases of Chikungunya (CHIKV) have been recently detected in Rome. A survey was conduct- ed prior to the 2017 outbreak to assess knowledge, attitude, and practices towards CHIKV infections on 103 randomly selected general practitioners (GPs),

Human behaviors: a threat for mosquito control?

open access: yes, 2015
Community involvement and the preventive behavior of households are considered to be at the heart of vector-control strategies. In this work, we consider a simple theoretical model that enables us to take into account human behaviors that may interfere ...

Wafer‐Scale Integration of α‐quartz Thin Films toward Super High Frequency Piezoelectric bioNEMS for Chikungunya Virus Detection

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 1, 2 January 2026.
Epitaxial piezoelectric α‐quartz/Si BioNEMS sensors, made using soft chemistry, effectively detect the Chikungunya virus. They have a mass sensitivity of 205 pg Hz−1 in liquid and can detect the virus at a limit of 9 ng mL−1. This development enables high‐frequency mass devices for point‐of‐care testing in healthcare and other electronic applications ...
