| biting activity and host preference of the malaria vectors anopheles maculatus and anopheles sawadwongporni (diptera: culicidae) in thailand. | adult mosquitoes in the anopheles maculatus group were surveyed from different regions of thailand and five different species were morphologically identified, including anopheles maculatus, anopheles sawadwongporni, anopheles notanandai, anopheles dravidicus, and anopheles willmori. blood-feeding activity and host preference of two species, anopheles maculatus and anopheles sawadwongporni, were observed during a one-year period at pu teuy village, sai yok district, kanchanaburi province, west-ce ... | 2009 | 20836806 |
| vectors and malaria transmission in deforested, rural communities in north-central vietnam. | malaria is still prevalent in rural communities of central vietnam even though, due to deforestation, the primary vector anopheles dirus is uncommon. in these situations little is known about the secondary vectors which are responsible for maintaining transmission. basic information on the identification of the species in these rural communities is required so that transmission parameters, such as ecology, behaviour and vectorial status can be assigned to the appropriate species. | 2010 | 20846447 |
| ivermectin susceptibility and sporontocidal effect in greater mekong subregion anopheles. | novel vector control methods that can directly target outdoor malaria transmission are urgently needed in the greater mekong subregion (gms) to accelerate malaria elimination and artemisinin resistance containment efforts. ivermectin mass drug administration (mda) to humans has been shown to effectively kill wild anopheles and suppress malaria transmission in west africa. preliminary laboratory investigations were performed to determine ivermectin susceptibility and sporontocidal effect in gms a ... | 2017 | 28687086 |
| diversity and biting patterns of anopheles species in a malaria endemic area, umphang valley, tak province, western thailand. | malaria is highly endemic in umphang valley, a district in the western edge of tak province, along the boundary with kayin state of myanmar. although there are high indigenous malaria cases in this area every year, nothing about malaria vectors and their transmission role have been investigated before this study. the objective of this work is to characterize the anopheles species diversity and trophic behavior of malaria vectors in the transmission area of umphang valley. females of anopheles mo ... | 2019 | 30439344 |
