Malaria is a dangerous disease that contributes to millions of hospital visits and hundreds of
thousands of deaths, especially in children residing in sub-Saharan Africa. Although several …

Background Progress made in the control of malaria vectors globally is largely due to the
use of insecticides. However, success in the fight against malaria has slowed down or even …

Background Information on common markers of metabolic resistance in malaria vectors from
countries sharing similar eco-climatic characteristics can facilitate coordination of malaria …

Background The scale-up in the distribution of long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) and
indoor residual spraying has significantly reduced malaria burden and mortality. However …

Entomological surveillance of local malaria vector populations is an important component of
vector control and resistance management. In this study, the resistance profile and its …

Monitoring and understanding the trend and dynamics of insecticide resistance is very key to
devising efficient control strategies. This study was carried out to characterize the mosquito …

Piperonyl butoxide (PBO)-synergized pyrethroid products are widely available for the control
of pyrethroid-resistant mosquitoes. To date, no study has examined mosquito resistance …

Background: The Sahel region of Chad Republic is a prime candidate for malaria pre-
elimination. To facilitate pre-elimination efforts in this region, two populations of Anopheles …

The overexpression and overactivity of key cytochrome P450s (CYP450) genes are major
drivers of metabolic resistance to insecticides in African malaria vectors such as Anopheles …

Background Knockdown resistance (kdr) is a well-characterized target-site insecticide
resistance mechanism that is associated with DDT and pyrethroid resistance. Even though …
