PCR-BASED ASSAY TO SURVEY FOR KNOCKDOWN RESISTANCE TO PYRETHROID ACARICIDES IN HUMAN SCABIES MITES (SARCOPTES SCABIEI VAR HOMINIS)

1 Apr 2006

Abstract excerpt

Permethrin, in the form of a topical cream, is being increasingly used for community-based programs to control endemic scabies. The development of resistance has reduced the use of pyrethroids for the control of many arthropods of economic and health importance. The best recognized form of pyrethroid resistance, known as knockdown resistance or kdr, has been linked to specific mutations in the target of these...
