WIN Network at FIOCRUZ
In the presence of regional partners, the WIN network met on May 17-18 to create the 1st South American research network on insecticide resistance in arthropod vectors of human diseases. The WINSA aims to coordinate research on vector resistance and identify knowledge...
A new WHO bottle bioassay method to assess the susceptibility of mosquito vectors to public health insecticides: results from a WHO-coordinated multi-centre study
Background The continued spread of insecticide resistance in mosquito vectors of malaria and arboviral diseases may lead to operational failure of insecticide-based interventions if resistance is not monitored and managed efciently. This study aimed to develop and...
