Assessment of the genotoxic potential of temephos
Pesticidi i fitomedicina, 2020 Genotoxic effects of pesticides are of great concern for public health due to the fact that they are widely used for both domestic and industrial purposes. Temephos is a member of organophosphorus pesticides, which is the most widely used group of chemicals against both agricultural and domestic insects.

Resistance of Aedes aegypti to temephos and adaptive disadvantages [PDF]
Revista de Saúde Pública, 2014 OBJECTIVE To evaluate the resistance of Aedes aegypti to temephos Fersol 1G (temephos 1% w/w) associated with the adaptive disadvantage of insect populations in the absence of selection pressure. METHODS A diagnostic dose of 0.28 mg a.i./L and doses between 0.28 mg a.i./L and 1.40 mg a.i./L were used.

Ecosphere, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023 Abstract The biological larvicide Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (Bti) is used worldwide to control reproduction of mosquitoes in freshwater habitats. However, its impact on the ecosystem including nontarget species is often unclear. In addition, it is unknown how Bti larvicide may interact with local mosquito predators to shape oviposition ...

Insecticide resistance compromises the control of Aedes aegypti in Bangladesh
Pest Management Science, Volume 79, Issue 8, Page 2846-2861, August 2023., 2023 Phenotypic characterization of insecticide resistance was conducted using an adaptation of the CDC bottle bioassay on 3‐ to 5‐day‐old, non‐blood‐fed female F1 mosquitoes. Abstract BACKGROUND With no effective drugs or widely available vaccines, dengue control in Bangladesh is dependent on targeting the primary vector Aedes aegypti with insecticides and

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 286-299, June 2023., 2023 Abstract Assays to evaluate the susceptibility of Simulium larvae to temephos and Bacillus thuringiensis var israelensis (Bti) were carried out by setting‐up an in vitro laboratory test (‘bio assay’) and a semi‐natural test (‘système de goutières’) to assess the LC50/LC90 values. Larvae of Simulium species in Cameroon (S. damnosum s.l., S. hargreavesi,

Recent outbreak of dengue in Bangladesh: A threat to public health
Health Science Reports, Volume 6, Issue 4, April 2023., 2023 Abstract Background and Aims The dengue virus is widespread throughout Bangladesh and significantly contributes to morbidity and mortality. One effective method for preventing further dengue epidemics is to reduce mosquito breeding at the most opportune period each year. This study aims to determine dengue prevalence in 2022 by comparing previous years'

Polymorphisms in GSTE2 is associated with temephos resistance in Aedes aegypti
Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology, 2020 The glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are enzymes involved in several distinct biological processes. In insects, the GSTs, especially delta and epsilon classes, play a key role in the metabolism of xenobiotics used to control insect populations. Here, we investigated its potential role in temephos resistance, examining the GSTE2 gene from susceptible ...
