  • Aplicación de la predicción meteorológica para el pronóstico de la abundancia potencial del Aedes aegypti en Buenos Aires

    Open AccessRubén Bejarán, A De Garín et al.ARTICLETerra Livre2015

    O mosquito Aedes aegypti é o mesmo vetor urbano da dengue e da febre amarela. A cidade de Buenos Aires foi afetada pela epidemia de febre amarela durante a segunda metade do século XIX e começo do XX. Entre as décadas de 1920 e 1950, o monitoramento foi descontínuo, mas quando vindo de fora, a abundância desse mosquito na cidade foi muito baixa e em 1967 ele foi declarado erradicado. Em 1995, ele foi detectado na cidade e tardio monitoramento do …

En cada zona se identificaron referentes comunitarios, gubernamentales y no gubernamentales. Se realizó un diagnóstico entomológico (mediante ovitrampas), ambiental (con observaciones en terreno, encuestas y talleres), y social (utilizando cuestionarios, entrevistas y reuniones). Se…

  • Control of Aedes aegypti with temephos in a Buenos Aires cemetery, Argentina

    Open AccessDarío Vezzani, Stella Maris Velázquez et al.ARTICLERevista de Saúde Pública2004References: 2

    The efficacy of a larvicide, temephos, for controlling Ae. aegypti was evaluated in a cemetery in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Breeding sites decreased from 18.4% in the first study period (Nov 1998 to May 1999, without temephos) to 2.2% in the second period (Nov 1999 to May 2000, two applications), and to 0.05% in the third one (Nov 2000 to May 2001, five applications). Ovitraps with eggs decreased from 17% in the first period to 5.8% in the second …

  • Aedes albopictus in an area of Misiones, Argentina

    Open AccessNicolas Schweigmann, Darío Vezzani et al.ARTICLERevista de Saúde Pública2004References: 3

    Until early 1998 the presence of Aedes albopictus had never been detected in Argentina. During April of the same year, few individuals of this species were recorded in 33 breeding sites found in 25 out of 161 inspected houses in the city of Eldorado, Province of Misiones. The homogeneous spatial distribution of the proliferation foci suggests the existence of a generalized infestation in this locality during the study period

    Open AccessNicolas Schweigmann, Nicolás J Schweigmann et al.ARTICLERevista Panamericana de Salud…1999

    The opossum of the genus Didelphis is one of the principal wild reservoirs of Trypanosoma cruzi and is widely distributed in the Western Hemisphere. Didelphis albiventris is the most common marsupial in Amamá and Trinidad, two communities in the province of Santiago del Estero, Argentina. The D. albiventris population is replaced every year, and the opossum normally has two reproductive periods, one at the beginning of the spring and another at t…
