Pyrethroid resistance can be considered the main threat to continued control of many mosquito vectors disease. Piperonyl butoxide (PBO) has been used as a synergist help increase efficacy certain insecticides. This enhancement stems from its ability inhibit two major metabolic enzyme systems, P450s and non-specific esterases, enhance cuticular penetration insecticide.To compare mortality characterized resistant Aedes aegypti strain, Nha Trang, Vietnam susceptible laboratory strain Bora on...
Abstract Hepatitis B is the single most common cause of liver cancer, affecting > 250 million people worldwide (mostly in resource limited communities) and killing 1 annually. The condition marked by poor rates diagnosis (14%) treatment (8% eligible individuals).
