Evaluating the Usability, Durability, and Effectiveness of Permethrin-Treated Uniforms and Metofluthrin Spatial Repellent in Preventing Mosquito Bites in the Laos Military [PDF]
While vector control methods have successfully reduced malaria rates worldwide, such methods are not always suitable for military use. We evaluated the usability, durability, and effectiveness of permethrin-treated uniforms and metofluthrin spatial ...

Pseudoresistance to permethrin in scabies
Reports of permethrin resistance of Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis are emerging. We propose that this may be pseudoresistance. The resistance is due to inadequate counselling by physicians, incorrect treatment (insufficient quantity of permethrin; too ...

Effects of quercetin in male rats’ testis after consumption of permethrin: a transmission electron microscopy (TEM) study [PDF]
Permethrin, a widely used pyrethroid insecticide, impairs male reproductive function through oxidative stress and endocrine disruption. This study evaluated the protective effects of quercetin against permethrin-induced testicular toxicity in adult male ...

An Acute Permethrin Exposure Causes Significant Microbial Shifts in Montastraea cavernosa
Insecticide use is common in developed tropical regions where it may enter coastal reef ecosystems through land-based sources. This local introduction of contaminants could affect ecosystem health as corals can better withstand global stressors more ...

Aedes aegypti miRNA-33 modulates permethrin induced toxicity by regulating VGSC transcripts
Aedes aegypti is a major vector of Zika, dengue, and other arboviruses. Permethrin adulticidal spraying, which targets the voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC), is commonly done to reduce local mosquito populations and protect humans from exposure to ...

Metabolic Resistance in Permethrin-Resistant Florida Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae)
Aedes aegypti is the principal mosquito vector for many arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) including dengue, chikungunya, and Zika. In the United States, excessive permethrin use has led to a high frequency of resistance in mosquitoes.
