Normally dem dey use insecticide to target di insects, but US researchers say anti-malaria drugs wey dem absorbed through dia legs fit stop dem from spreading disease.
In a fresh approach to blocking transmission of the malaria parasite by mosquitoes, potent antimalarial compounds that kill parasites in mosquitoes are incorporated into bed-net prototypes.
To combat the deadly diseases spread by mosquitoes, entomologists often turn to the blood-sucking insect’s reproductive life.
Gene editing holds the potential of suppressing mosquito species that carry deadly diseases — and raises ethical questions.
Mosquitoes are the "deadliest animal on the planet," and even when the bites aren't fatal, they're certainly not pleasant.
"This new malaria control strategy blocks mosquito-mediated parasite transmission without killing the mosquito and inducing resistance, which could extend the effective lifespan of bed nets," said ...
