Failure of pyriproxyfen at recommended application frequency and doses to control Aedes mosquitoes in Thailand. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical DiseasesBackground/objectivesMosquito-borne diseases like malaria, dengue fever, and Zika virus remain global health concerns. Pyriproxyfen is effective in controlling mosquitoes by disrupting their development.

Pyriproxyfen Disrupts Chitin and Trehalose Metabolism in the Silkworm Bombyx mori [PDF]
InsectsPyriproxyfen, a juvenile hormone analog insecticide, poses severe risks to non-target silkworms (Bombyx mori), as evidenced by disrupted metamorphosis—a process strictly dependent on chitin synthesis and its precursor trehalose.

Susceptibility of the invasive malaria vector Anopheles stephensi in Ethiopia to novel chemical insecticides and insect growth regulator [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe presence of invasive Anopheles stephensi has been confirmed from field studies in several urban, peri-urban and rural areas of Ethiopia. Recent studies have shown that these mosquitoes are resistant to common public health insecticides, namely ...

LLIN Evaluation in Uganda Project (LLINEUP2) - Effect of long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) treated with pyrethroid plus pyriproxyfen vs LLINs treated with pyrethroid plus piperonyl butoxide in Uganda: A cluster-randomised trial. [PDF]
PLOS Global Public HealthLong-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) are the cornerstone of malaria control, but their effectiveness is threatened by pyrethroid resistance. We embedded a pragmatic, cluster-randomised trial into Uganda's national LLIN distribution campaign in 2020 ...

Negative Cross Resistance Mediated by Co-treated bed nets: A Potential Means of Restoring Pyrethroid-susceptibility to Malaria Vectors. [PDF]
, 2014 Insecticide-treated nets and indoor residual spray programs for malaria control are entirely dependent on pyrethroid insecticides. The ubiquitous exposure of Anopheles mosquitoes to this chemistry has selected for resistance in a number of populations ...

Pyriproxyfen, a juvenile hormone analog, damages midgut cells and interferes with behaviors of Aedes aegypti larvae [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Juvenile hormone analogs (JHA) are known to interfere with growth and biosynthesis of insects with potential for insecticide action. However, there has been comparatively few data on morphological effects of JHA on insect organs.

Fate of Pyriproxyfen in Soils and Plants
Toxics, 2020 Since the 1990s, the insect growth regulator pyriproxyfen has been widely used worldwide as a larvicide in vector control and in agriculture to fight a very large number of pests.

Scientific Reports, 2022 Long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLINs) play a crucial role in preventing malaria transmission. LLINs should remain effective for at least three years, even after repeated washings. Currently, monitoring insecticides in LLINs is cumbersome, costly,
