The Rapid Degradation of Lambda-Cyhalothrin Makes Treated Vegetables Relatively Safe for Consumption
Lambda-cyhalothrin (λ-cyhalothrin) is the most commonly used pyrethroid insecticide for vegetable farming in Benin. This insecticide is misused and overused by farmers, and hence may pose health hazards to consumers. We monitored λ-cyhalothrin residues in lettuce and cabbage from farms at the market gates in Cotonou and Parakou using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis techniques. These residues were also monitored on samples d…
The relative roles of ANC and EPI in the continuous distribution of LLINs: A qualitative study in four countries
BACKGROUND: The continuous distribution of long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) for malaria prevention, through the antenatal care (ANC) and the Expanded Programme on Immunizations (EPI), is recommended by the WHO to improve and maintain LLIN coverage. Despite these recommendations, little is known about the relative strengths and weaknesses of the ANC and EPI-based LLIN distribution. This study aimed to explore and compare the roles of the ANC…
Delivery systems for insecticide treated and untreated mosquito nets in Africa: Categorization and outcomes achieved
INTRODUCTION: Coverage of insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) in sub-Saharan Africa is still low despite their proven efficacy, effectiveness and cost-effectiveness. Delivery systems for ITNs have been hotly debated, but there has been no structured approach to assessing their relative effectiveness. This paper aims to: propose a categorization of ITN and mosquito net delivery systems; classify existing systems according to this categorization; criti…
Trends, priorities and policy directions in the control of vector-borne diseases in urban environments
The habitats available in urban environments tend to be rather lacking in diversity compared to those in the countryside, and relatively few species are able to exploit them. Those that can, however, often find themselves relatively well provided with food and places to live, and relatively free of competitors and predators. This applies not only to such well-known species as the house-sparrow, but also to most of the important mosquito vectors o…
