Factors Associated with Larval Control Practices in a Dengue Outbreak Prone Area

Journal of Environmental and Public Health, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
In order to reduce the risk of dengue outbreak recurrence in a dengue outbreak prone area, the members of the community need to sustain certain behavior to prevent mosquito from breeding. Our study aims to identify the factors associated with larval control practices in this particular community.

THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PEPPER LEAVES (Piper nigrum L.) AS A LARVACIDE OF Aedes aegypti MOSQUITO

Jurnal Ilmiah Biologi Eksperimen dan Keanekaragaman Hayati (J-BEKH), 2021
Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) cases are quite high in Indonesia. One of the causes of high dengue cases is the high vector population, namely the Aedes aegypti mosquito. Mosquito control Ae. aegypti one of them uses larvicides to break the chain of reproduction. The use of chemical-based larvicides can be bad because it can pollute the environment and

Stability Analysis and Optimal Control of a Vector‐Borne Disease with Nonlinear Incidence

Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
The paper considers a model for the transmission dynamics of a vector‐borne disease with nonlinear incidence rate. It is proved that the global dynamics of the disease are completely determined by the basic reproduction number. In order to assess the effectiveness of disease control measures, the sensitivity analysis of the basic reproductive number R0

Primary Oral Myiasis: A Case Report

Case Reports in Dentistry, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Myiasis commonly refers to invasion of live human or animal tissue by fly larvae of the Diptera order where they complete their cycle totally or in part, feeding on living or dead tissue, as well as on body fluids. Infestation of tissues of vertebrate species is pandemic but more frequently found in tropical and subtropical countries where poor hygiene,

Presentation of Malaria Epidemics Using Multiple Optimal Controls

Journal of Applied Mathematics, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
An existing model is extended to assess the impact of some antimalaria control measures, by re‐formulating the model as an optimal control problem. This paper investigates the fundamental role of three type of controls, personal protection, treatment, and mosquito reduction strategies in controlling the malaria. We work in the nonlinear optimal control

Analysis of a Delayed SIR Model with Nonlinear Incidence Rate

Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, Volume 2008, Issue 1, 2008., 2008
An SIR epidemic model with incubation time and saturated incidence rate is formulated, where the susceptibles are assumed to satisfy the logistic equation and the incidence term is of saturated form with the susceptible. The threshold value ℜ0 determining whether the disease dies out is found.

The Ovicidal, Larvacidal and Adulticidal Properties of 5,5′-Dimethyl-2,2′-Bipyridyl against Drosophila melanogaster

PLoS ONE, 2012
Insecticide resistance has limited the number of available chemical options for insect pest control. Hence there is a need for new chemistries with novel modes of action. Here we investigate the mode of action for an insecticide that has not yet been released for commercial use.
