Abstract
There is a pressing need for innovative strategies to control arboviruses transmitted by Aedes aegypti. The modification of indoor residual spraying to target Ae. aegypti is one such strategy. A clinical trial quantifying the epidemiologic impact of targeted indoor residual spraying for Ae. aegypti control used a product with pirimiphos-methyl as the active ingredient in the city of Mérida, Mexico. To monitor the susceptibility of local Ae. aegypti populations over the course of the trial, we calculated a diagnostic dose for pirimiphos-methyl using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention bottle assay. Two independent laboratories tested a series of 8 concentrations of pirimiphos-methyl, eliciting a range of mortality between 0% and 100% in an insecticide-susceptible reference strain of Ae. aegypti. The results suggested a diagnostic dose of 25 μg/ml at a diagnostic time of 30 min. This diagnostic dose of pirimiphos-methyl was used to monitor pirimphos-methyl susceptibility in Ae. aegypti throughout the trial.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association (JAMCA) encourages the submission
of previously unpublished manuscripts contributing to the advancement of knowledge of
mosquitoes and other arthropod vectors. The Journal encourages submission of a wide range of
scientific studies that include all aspects of biology, ecology, systematics, and integrated pest
management. Manuscripts exceeding normal length (e. g., monographs) may be accepted for
publication as a supplement to the regular issue.
