Abstract

Background: Collecting live sand flies from indoor sites is a major challenge for researchers in large cities due to the reluctance of families to survey their homes. This study was conducted to assess the efficacy of two methods for collecting sand flies for use in susceptibility tests in the urban area of Kerman, southeastern Iran.

Methods: Sandflies were mainly collected using both baited traps and hand catch methods from outdoor and indoor sites. Susceptibility tests were separately done according to the standard World Health Organization testing protocol on Phlebotomus sergenti, including 60-minute exposure to DDT 4.0%, propoxur 0.1%, deltamethrin 0.05%, and malathion 5.0%.

Results: During this research, the natural habitats and suitable indoor sites were selected to predict the density of live sand fly with perfect accuracy. The number of live Ph. sergenti caught by hand catch and baited traps methods was 42 and 361 in indoor and outdoor sites, respectively. The mortality rate of Ph. sergenti exposed to DDT 4%, deltamethrin 0.05, malathion 5%, and propoxur was 100%.

Conclusion: The baited traps showed a significant efficiency compared to hand catch for collecting live Ph. sergenti for use in susceptibility tests in urban areas. The Ph. sergenti collected from both indoor and outdoor sites were susceptible to all insecticides.

伊朗东南部克尔曼市两种捕获方法对人源性皮肤利什曼病主要媒介瑟氏白蛉对常规杀虫剂敏感性的比较研究

背景:由于家庭不愿意调查他们的家，从室内收集活沙蝇对大城市的研究人员来说是一个重大挑战。本研究旨在评估在伊朗东南部克尔曼市区收集沙蝇用于药敏试验的两种方法的效果。方法:采用诱蚊法和手捕法在室外和室内采集白蛉。根据世界卫生组织对瑟氏白虫的标准检测方案分别进行敏感性试验，包括接触滴滴涕4.0%、残杀威0.1%、溴氰菊酯0.05%和马拉硫磷5.0% 60分钟。结果:本研究选择了适宜的自然生境和室内场地，对活沙蝇密度进行了较好的预测。室内和室外现场采用手捕法和饵诱法分别捕获42只和361只活的瑟根蒂微蚊。滴滴涕4%、溴氰菊酯0.05、马拉硫磷5%、残杀威4种杀虫剂的死亡率均为100%。结论:与手捕法相比，诱捕法在城市地区采集活的血吸虫药敏试验中效果显著。室内和室外采集的瑟genti博士对所有杀虫剂均敏感。
