Recent outbreak of dengue in Bangladesh: A threat to public health

open access: yesHealth 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'

Larvicidal Potential of Caribbean Plants

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Mosquitoes are vectors for numerous arboviruses such as dengue, chikungunya, and Zika which continue to negatively impact the health of Caribbean populations. Within the region, synthetic insecticides are primarily used to control mosquito populations.

Solar‐light‐driven ZnO/biochar treatment of pesticides contaminated wastewater: A practical and computational study

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 10, Issue 12, Page 4708-4725, December 2022., 2022
Pesticide removal using cost‐effective materials is critical in industrial wastewater treatment. We conducted a comprehensive practical and computational study on pesticide removal in this manuscript, as well as an economic analysis of the process's cost.

Detection of pyrethroid resistance mutations and intron variants in the voltage‐gated sodium channel of Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti and Aedes (Stegomyia) albopictus mosquitoes from Lao People's Democratic Republic

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 424-434, December 2022., 2022
Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes were collected from Laos and sequences of domains II and III of their voltage‐gated sodium channel gene were analysed. S989P, V1016G, T1520I and F1534C mutations, which are associated with pyrethroid resistance, were found in Ae.

Multiple insecticide resistance and first evidence of V410L kdr mutation in Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti (Linnaeus) from Burkina Faso

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 309-319, September 2022., 2022
Aedes aegypti from Burkina Faso diplayed multiple insecticide resistance with multiple mechanisms involved Abstract The response to recent dengue outbreaks in Burkina Faso was insecticide‐based, despite poor knowledge of the vector population's susceptibility to the insecticides used.

Resistance of Aedes aegypti to temephos and adaptive disadvantages [PDF]

open access: yesRevista 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.

Spatial and temporal country-wide survey of temephos resistance in Brazilian populations of Aedes aegypti

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2016
The organophosphate temephos has been the main insecticide used against larvae of the dengue and yellow fever mosquito (Aedes aegypti) in Brazil since the mid-1980s.

Toxicity of Ulva lactuca and green fabricated silver nanoparticles against mosquito vectors and their impact on the genomic DNA of the dengue vector Aedes aegypti

open access: yesIET Nanobiotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 4, Page 145-157, June 2022., 2022
Abstract Marine seaweeds are known to have a potential role against microbial and pesticidal activities. Ulva lactuca, a green macroalgae extract analysed through gas chromatography mass spectrometry reveals 31 compounds. Resistance of mosquito vectors to synthetic insecticides remains a major problem.
