Evaluation of KO-Tab 1-2-3: a wash-resistant 'dip-it-yourself' insecticide formulation for long-lasting treatment of mosquito nets. [PDF]

, 2005
INTRODUCTION: Insecticide-treated nets (ITN) are an important method of preventing malaria. To remain effective, they need to be re-treated with pyrethroid insecticide at approximately yearly intervals. Systems for re-treating nets in Africa are limited,

Rapid evolutionary responses to insecticide resistance management interventions by the German cockroach (Blattella germanica L.)

Scientific Reports, 2019
The German cockroach (Blattella germanica L.) is a worldwide pest that lives exclusively in human environments. B. germanica threatens human health by producing asthma-triggering allergens, vectoring pathogenic/antibiotic-resistant microbes, and by ...

Management of insecticide resistance in the major Aedes vectors of arboviruses: Advances and challenges

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2019
Background The landscape of mosquito-borne disease risk has changed dramatically in recent decades, due to the emergence and reemergence of urban transmission cycles driven by invasive Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus.

Effect of large-scale social marketing of insecticide-treated nets on child survival in rural Tanzania. [PDF]

, 2001
BACKGROUND: Insecticide-treated nets have proven efficacy as a malaria-control tool in Africa. However, the transition from efficacy to effectiveness cannot be taken for granted.

IRAC: Mode of action classification and insecticide resistance management.

Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology, 2015
Insecticide resistance is a long standing and expanding problem for pest arthropod control. Effective insecticide resistance management (IRM) is essential if the utility of current and future insecticides is to be preserved.

Enhancing Enzyme Activity With Mutation Combinations Guided by Few‐Shot Learning and Causal Inference

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We present an integrated workflow that predicts activity‐enhancing mutation combinations from minimal experimental data. By proposing in vivo unit yield (yield/expression) as a surrogate for kcat/Km through causal inference, and visualizing local activity landscape, it effectively guides product yield improvement. ABSTRACT Designing enzyme sequences to

The infectivity of the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana to insecticide-resistant and susceptible Anopheles arabiensis mosquitoes at two different temperatures [PDF]

, 2010
BACKGROUND: Control of the major African malaria vector species continues to rely extensively on the application of residual insecticides through indoor house spraying or bed net impregnation.

Combining unrelated insecticides for improved control and management of insecticide resistant African malaria vectors [PDF]

It is now generally accepted that if nothing is done and insecticide resistance in malaria vectors especially to pyrethroids eventually led to widespread failure of current vector control strategies, the progress achieved so far in reducing the burden of
