Creating an "enabling environment" for taking insecticide treated nets to national scale: the Tanzanian experience. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Malaria is the largest cause of health services attendance, hospital admissions and child deaths in Tanzania. At the Abuja Summit in April 2000 Tanzania committed itself to protect 60% of its population at high risk of malaria by 2005.

Evaluation of Olyset insecticide-treated nets distributed seven years previously in Tanzania. [PDF]
BACKGROUND\ud \ud Insecticide-treated nets represent currently a key malaria control strategy, but low insecticide re-treatment rates remain problematic. Olyset nets are currently one of two long-lasting insecticidal nets recommended by WHO.

Identification and Optimization of New Leads for Malaria Vector Control
A significant proportion of the world's population remains at risk from malaria, and whilst great progress has been made in reducing the number of malaria cases globally through the use of vector control insecticides, these gains are under ...

Comparability between insecticide resistance bioassays for mosquito vectors : time to review current methodology? [PDF]
Insecticides play an integral role in the control of mosquito-borne diseases. With resistance to insecticides on the rise, surveillance of the target population for optimal choice of insecticides is a necessity.

A dynamic model to simulate the development of insecticide resistance [PDF]
In this article, we described a dynamic model to simulate the development of insecticide resistance. The variables as insecticide use dosage, timing and frequency of insecticide uses, genetic mutagenicity of insect individuals, insecticide-resistant ...

Long-term trends in Anopheles gambiae insecticide resistance in Côte d'Ivoire [PDF]
Malaria control is heavily dependent on the use of insecticides that target adult mosquito vectors via insecticide treated nets (ITNs) or indoor residual spraying (IRS).
