Evidence of intensification of pyrethroid resistance in the major malaria vectors in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo
7 Sept 2023
Abstract excerpt
Assessing patterns and evolution of insecticide resistance in malaria vectors is a prerequisite to design suitable control strategies. Here, we characterised resistance profile in Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles funestus in Kinshasa and assess the level of aggravation by comparing to previous 2015 estimates. Both species collected in July 2021 were highly resistant to pyrethroids at 1×, 5× and 10× concentrations...
