Antibiotic Resistance Monitoring: A Laboratory Perspective [PDF]
Efficient monitoring of antimicrobial resistance (AR) can produce timely and important data and information that will benefit patients and could assist in the detection of a bioterrorist event. The microbiology laboratory staff of the largest U.S. Air Force medical facility attempted to improve AR monitoring at their hospital by reviewing their current

Biochemical basis of permethrin resistance in Anopheles arabiensis from Lower Moshi, north-eastern Tanzania. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Development of resistance to different classes of insecticides is a potential threat to malaria control. With the increasing coverage of long-lasting insecticide-treated nets in Tanzania, the continued monitoring of resistance in vector ...

Monitoring and Interpreting Changes in Insecticide Resistance
Over the last 40 years, the development of pesticide resistance by insect pests, fungal pathogens and weeds has provided one of the most spectacular and best-documented examples of a genetic response to man-made changes in the environment. Nearly 500 species of arthropod are now reported to resist insecticides or acaricides of at least one chemical ...

Monitoring antimalarial resistance: launching a cooperative effort
Current information on efficacy of antimalarials is crucial to provide early warning of resistance. A collaborative effort between the Global Malaria Program of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the WorldWide Antimalarial Resistance Network (WWARN) has recently been launched.

Cost-effectiveness of tenofovir instead of zidovudine for use in first-line antiretroviral therapy in settings without virological monitoring. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The most recent World Health Organization (WHO) antiretroviral treatment guidelines recommend the inclusion of zidovudine (ZDV) or tenofovir (TDF) in first-line therapy.
