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]
, 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 ...

Fighting Mosquitoes with Mosquitoes
Molecular Medicine Communications, 2022 A first-of-its-kind open-air study of genetically engineered mosquitoes has been conducted by scientists in the US. The biotechnology company Oxitec, spearheading these experiments, claims to have obtained positive results. However, much more elaborate and intricate studies are needed to establish whether these mosquitoes can suppress a wild population

Knockdown of piRNA pathway proteins results in enhanced Semliki forest virus production in mosquito cells [PDF]
, 2013 The exogenous siRNA pathway is important in restricting arbovirus infection in mosquitoes. Less is known about the role of the PIWI-interacting RNA pathway, or piRNA pathway, in antiviral responses. Viral piRNA-like molecules have recently been described
