Ivermectin and permethrin for treating scabies [PDF]

open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2018
Scabies is an intensely itchy parasitic infection of the skin. It occurs worldwide, but is particularly problematic in areas of poor sanitation, overcrowding, and social disruption. In recent years, permethrin and ivermectin have become the most relevant treatment options for scabies.To assess the efficacy and safety of topical permethrin and topical ...

Kinetics and Novel Degradation Pathway of Permethrin in Acinetobacter baumannii ZH-14

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Persistent use of permethrin has resulted in its ubiquitous presence as a contaminant in surface streams and soils, yet little is known about the kinetics and metabolic behaviors of this pesticide.

Assessing the impact of the addition of pyriproxyfen on the durability of permethrin-treated bed nets in Burkina Faso: a compound-randomized controlled trial

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2019
Background Long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) treated with pyrethroids are the foundation of malaria control in sub-Saharan Africa. Rising pyrethroid resistance in vectors, however, has driven the development of alternative net formulations. Here the

Eugenol-hyperactivated nymphs of Triatoma infestans become intoxicated faster than non-hyperactivated nymphs when exposed to a permethrin-treated surface

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2018
Background Eugenol is a botanical monoterpene that hyperactivates the blood-sucking bug Triatoma infestans, and permethrin is a pyrethroid with a strong triatomicide effect. In the present work, we tested the hypothesis that eugenol-hyperactivated nymphs

Multiple cytochrome P450 genes: conferring high levels of permethrin resistance in mosquitoes, Culex quinquefasciatus

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Insecticides, especially pyrethroids, are the most important in the insect pest control and preventing insect vector-borne human diseases. However, insect pests, including mosquitoes, have developed resistance in the insecticides that used against them ...

Permethrin Resistance in Aedes aegypti Affects Aspects of Vectorial Capacity

open access: yesInsects, 2021
Simple Summary Pyrethroids have been applied as a major type of insecticide targeted at mosquitoes, many of which are key vectors in the transmission of several flaviviruses. Resistance to pyrethroids has emerged and become a worldwide threat to mosquito

Is there a really resistance to scabies treatment with permethrin? In vitro killing activity of permethrin on Sarcoptes scabiei from patients with resistant scabies

open access: yesDermatologic Therapy, 2021
Recently, there have been increased scabies infestations but many patients do not respond to treatment. Clinicians are hesitant to use permethrin despite the fact that treatment failure may be due to noncompliance with the treatment rather than ...

Are standard aquatic test species and methods adequate surrogates for use in environmental risk assessment of pesticides in tropical environments?

open access: yesIntegrated Environmental Assessment and Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 202-212, January 2023., 2023
Abstract In regulatory risk assessment, surrogate species of fish, aquatic invertebrates, and primary producers are tested to assess toxicity and subsequently the risk of pesticides to freshwater biota. This study evaluates whether the standard, surrogate test species (mostly temperate in latitudinal distribution) used in many parts of the world are ...

Exposures to pesticides and risk of cancer: Evaluation of recent epidemiological evidence in humans and paths forward

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, Volume 152, Issue 5, Page 879-912, 1 March 2023., 2023
Abstract Knowledge of the role in cancer etiology of environmental exposures as pesticides is a prerequisite for primary prevention. We review 63 epidemiological studies on exposure to pesticides and cancer risk in humans published from 2017 to 2021, with emphasis on new findings, methodological approaches, and gaps in the existing literature.
