Abstract:

SummaryThe proportion of blood meals taken on humans which are infectious to mosquitoes in the Madang area, Papua New Guinea was estimated by two methods. In the first, laboratory rearedAnopheles farautiwere fed on individuals of all ages at village surveys. The results showed that 3·8% of people were infectious and that the mean percentage of mosquitoes which became infected by feeding on these people was 37·9%. From the average proportion of mosquitoes infected, the probability that a mosquito feeding on a human would pick up infection was 0·013±0·005. In the second approach mosquitoes were

Abstract:

Introduction. Global climate changes affect the habitats of insects, including mosquitoes, which are carriers of dangerous natural focal infections. When mosquitos develop new territories, they create a potential threat to people who find themselves in these areas. In the Krasnodar Region, a stable population of Ae. albopictus mosquitoes was formed in the 21st century. These mosquitoes are carriers of many viral pyrrhoid-focal infections, such as Dengue, Chikungunya, Zika fever and Yellow fever. Estimations of biological, epidemiological and cultural data can help to answer the question of the

SUMMARYThe vector competences of 6 geographic strains of Aedes polynesiensis for Wuchereria bancrofti were studied using two types of experimental infections. Experimental infection of laboratory-bred mosquitoes fed on the carriers' forearms with different levels of microfilaraemia showed that microfilariae (mf) uptake was directly proportional to the carrier's mf density and, as mf densities decreased, concentration capacity of Ae. polynesiensis increased. It was also shown that infection has an important effect on mosquito mortality, and that the mortality rate differed among mosquito strain

Malaria is a disease that is transmitted through the mosquito type Anopheles females. Spread of malaria to human disease is caused by mosquito bites of infectious carriers. Malaria viruses can also be transmitted through blood transfusions from humans infected to healthy humans. The method is to study issues related to malaria, create constraint issue, determine the assumptions used for model validation and reconstruct the model for the spread of malaria disease. The research aims to reconstruct a model for the spread of malaria diseases with treatment, vaccination and spraying based on the SI

Millions of people die from the parasitic disease malaria each year. This illness is difficult to diagnose in a clinical environment and arises when the red blood cells in the blood are harmed. Malaria is caused by Plasmodium parasites, which are the main global cause of mortality and morbidity. Both in their hosts, the vertebrates, and their carriers, the mosquitoes, these parasites have a complicated life cycle.

Cholesterol is one of the most vital compounds for animals as it is involved in various biological processes and acts as the structural material in the body. However, insects do not have some of the essential enzymes in the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway and this makes them dependent on dietary cholesterol. Thus, the blocking of cholesterol uptake may have detrimental effects on the survival of the insect.

Abstract:

Malaria is caused by the Plasmodium parasite, which is transmitted by female Anopheles mosquitoes. There are five Plasmodium species that cause disease in humans; however, the most important species in terms of disease burden are Plasmodium falciparum, which is prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa, and Plasmodium vivax, which is more common in Asia and South America. There were an estimated 219 million malaria cases and 435,000 deaths worldwide due to malaria in 2017; Sub-Saharan Africa carries a disproportionately high share of the malaria burden, with 92% of cases and 93% of malaria deaths in 201

Abstract:

Most blood parasitoses are transmitted by means of carriers - ticks or insects, which bodies undergo certain development stages or transmission is carried out mechanically. Dirofilariasis is a zoonotic disease of animals and humans carried by mosquitoes. The reasons for dirofilariasis spread are the unrestricted movement of animals from one region to another. To diagnose dirofilariasis, a microscopy method of a fresh blood drop was used. Diagnosis for babesiosis in animals was made based on clinical traits and results of microscopic examination of peripheral blood smears stained according to R

SUMMARYThe effects of sex, age of the human host, patency of asexual and sexual stages and seasonality on infectiousness of Plasmodium falciparum to mosquitoes were investigated in a rural village in southern Tanzania between 1992 and 1994. Villagers from randomized subgroups of households were surveyed for malaria parasites. Gametocyte and trophozoite prevalences were age dependent and fluctuated without any clear pattern of seasonality. A sample of 107 participants, selected to include an excess of gametocyte carriers, slept under bednets with holes cut into the sides for 3 weeks. A total of

Abstract:

The article presents the current state of the problem of dirofilariasis. Helminth infection caused by nematodes of the genus Dirofilaria is mainly a disease of carnivores from the canine and feline families. Humans are considered occasional hosts in which Dirofilaria spp., more commonly D. repens, rarely reach sexual maturity. The climatic conditions of the territory are one of the determining factors for the spread of vector-borne diseases. Due to the fact that in recent years there has been a tendency to increase average temperatures everywhere, these changes lead to a shift and expansion of

The domestic dog is close to the person. The problem of maintaining the health of the dog and reducing the risk of human infection in conditions of high density of blood-sucking insects can be solved by the use of repellent sprays for animals. Recently, synthetic pyrethroids have been used as effective insecticides. We have conducted clinical studies to study the effectiveness of the repellent action of the new veterinary
