Organic Insecticides [PDF]

open access: yesAnaesthesia and Intensive Care, 2000
Organic insecticide poisoning continues to be a major health problem not only in the developing communities but also in the Western population. The insecticides commonly used are the organophosphates, organocarbamates, organochlorides and pyrethroids.

Identifying Current and Missing Knowledge in the Control of Pyrethroid-Resistant Triatoma Infestans, Vector of Chagas Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Triatomines are blood-sucking bugs that occur mainly in Latin America. They are vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi, the parasite that causes Chagas disease.

Efficacies of cooking and depuration for reducing current-use pesticide residues in wild-caught giant mud crabs (Scylla serrata)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
IntroductionPesticides can be transported into estuaries via spray drift, ground water contamination and surface runoff. Increasing climatic variability and global pesticide use are likely to increase the exposure of harvested estuarine species, and ...

Cis-regulatory CYP6P9b P450 variants associated with loss of insecticide-treated bed net efficacy against Anopheles funestus

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Elucidating the genetic basis of metabolic resistance to insecticides in malaria vectors is crucial to prolonging the effectiveness of insecticide-based control tools including long lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs).

Validation of a multi-residue method to determine deltamethrin and alpha-cypermethrin in mosquito nets by gas chromatography with electron capture detection (GC-µECD) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Nowadays long-lasting insecticidal mosquito nets (LNs) are frequently used around the world to protect people against malaria vectors. As they contain insecticide, laboratory control is needed to check whether the content of the active ...

Review of the existing maximum residue levels for emamectin according to Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005

open access: yesEFSA Journal, 2019
According to Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, EFSA has reviewed the maximum residue levels (MRLs) currently established at European level for the pesticide active substance emamectin.

Functional genetic validation of key genes conferring insecticide resistance in the major African malaria vector, Anopheles gambiae

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Insecticide resistance in Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes can derail malaria control programs, and to overcome it, we need to discover the underlying molecular basis.

Comparative Field Evaluation of Combinations of Long-Lasting Insecticide Treated Nets and Indoor Residual Spraying, Relative to Either Method Alone, for Malaria Prevention in an Area where the main Vector is Anopheles Arabiensis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) are commonly used together in the same households to improve malaria control despite inconsistent evidence on whether such combinations actually offer better protection than nets ...

Characterizing Permethrin and Etofenprox Resistance in Two Common Laboratory Strains of Anopheles gambiae (Diptera: Culicidae)

open access: yesInsects, 2018
Anopheles gambiae Giles (Diptera: Culicidae) is the most prolific malaria vector in sub-Saharan Africa, where widespread insecticide resistance has been reported. An.

Escalation of Pyrethroid Resistance in the Malaria Vector Anopheles funestus Induces a Loss of Efficacy of Piperonyl Butoxide–Based Insecticide-Treated Nets in Mozambique

open access: yesJournal of Infectious Diseases, 2019
Background Insecticide resistance poses a serious threat to insecticide-based interventions in Africa. There is a fear that resistance escalation could jeopardize malaria control efforts. Monitoring of cases of aggravation of resistance intensity and its
