Do Permethrin-Treated Screens Repel Sand Flies from Entering Houses ? [PDF]
Tropicultura, 2000 The effects of permethrin-treated screens on sand flies entering treated houses were evaluated in Marigat area of Baringo District, Kenya. Screens treated with 0.50 g/m2 a. i. of permethrin 20 % E.C. were fitted inside houses and retreated every 6 months

Investigation of the bacterial communities associated with females of Lutzomyia sand fly species from South America. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Phlebotomine sand flies are vectors of Leishmania that are acquired by the female sand fly during blood feeding on an infected mammal. Leishmania parasites develop exclusively in the gut lumen during their residence in the insect before transmission to a

Discovery of a Reversible Sub‐Picomolar Thrombin Inhibitor Using DCC
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.An ultrapotent yet fully reversible trivalent thrombin inhibitor discovered through screening a large dynamic combinatorial library (DCL) of 125 000 members of self‐assembled fragments. The innovative approach leverages size‐exclusion‐based affinity selection, coupled with MALDI‐TOF mass spectrometry readout, enabling the full workflow to be completed ...

Breeding sites of Phlebotomus sergenti, the sand fly vector of cutaneous leishmaniasis in the Judean Desert. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2012 Phlebotomine sand flies transmit Leishmania, phlebo-viruses and Bartonella to humans. A prominent gap in our knowledge of sand fly biology remains the ecology of their immature stages.

Sand flies, Leishmania, and transcriptome-borne solutions [PDF]
Parasitology International, 2009 Sand fly-parasite and sand fly-host interactions play an important role in the transmission of leishmaniasis. Vector molecules relevant for such interactions include midgut and salivary proteins. These potential targets for interruption of propagation of Leishmania parasites have been poorly characterized.

Courtship song genes and speciation in sand flies [PDF]
Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2001 Lutzomyia longipalpis (Lutz & Neiva, 1912) (Diptera: Psychodidae: Phlebotominae) is a vector of visceral leishmaniasis in the Americas and it might represent a complex of sibling species. Reproductive isolation between closely related species often involves differences in courtship behaviour.
