Pyrethroid activity-based probes for profiling cytochrome P450 activities associated with insecticide interactions [PDF]

, 2013
Pyrethroid insecticides are used to control diseases spread by arthropods. We have developed a suite of pyrethroid mimetic activity-based probes (PyABPs) to selectively label and identify P450s associated with pyrethroid metabolism.

Honeybees (Apis mellifera) paradoxically prefer nectar containing the harmful neonicotinoid thiamethoxam. This preference is associated with transient brain dopamine elevation during proboscis extension reflex (PER) responses and active feeding, and is reduced by the dopamine receptor antagonist fluphenazine.

Costing the distribution of insecticide-treated nets: a review of cost and cost-effectiveness studies to provide guidance on standardization of costing methodology. [PDF]

, 2006
BACKGROUND: Insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) are an effective and cost-effective means of malaria control. Scaling-up coverage of ITNs is challenging. It requires substantial resources and there are a number of strategies to choose from.
