Specific IgE against Solenopsis invicta (imported fire ant) remains the current diagnostic tool for allergy to ants worldwide. However, S. may not be only cause of ant anaphylaxis in Thai patients.To characterize species causing patients and test allergenic reactivity whole body extracts (WBE) geminata (tropical ants) with evidence IgE-mediated anaphylaxis.Thirty-two were identified. The causative collected by subjected identification. Twelve showed positive skin or serum specific 14 control...
Controlling sites where mosquitos breed is a key strategy in breaking the cycle of infectious transmission dengue virus. Preventive behaviors, such as covering water containers with lids and adding temephos (commercially named Abate sand) are needed to reduce control mosquito breeding sites. This study aimed investigate impact dengue-preventive behaviors on Aedes immature production.This cross-sectional used in-person interviews record occurrence Bang Kachao, Samut Prakan Province, Thailand....
Accurate identification of mosquito species is critically important for monitoring and controlling the impact human diseases they transmit. Here, we investigate four species: Aedes aegypti, Ae. albopictus, scutellaris Verrallina dux that co-occur in tropical subtropical regions, whose morphological similarity challenges their accurate identification, a crucial requirement entomological surveillance programs. Previous publications reveal clear taxonomic signal embedded wing cell landmark...
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the influence breeding containers on production Aedes mosquitoes after a vector-control program in households that might support dengue transmission tourist attraction areas Bang Kachao Riverbend, Thailand. Design/methodology/approach A cross-sectional study was conducted an ecotourism area Thailand, during period October 2016 September 2017. total 832 from five villages participated study. Data collection employed interview questionnaire,...
An infestation of a Cimicidae (Hemiptera: Cimicidae) member, especially the bed bug, can cause economic loss and impact health. A cost-effective user-friendly method for identifying infesting species will help with early detection control infestations. linear morphometric is often used, but it requires examination many characters highly preserved specimen. We conducted comparative study effectiveness classification using single organ, pronotum, through outline-based methods. Bat...
Abstract BackgroundPrevious publications revealed a clear taxonomic signal embedded in the external contour of wings. Our study explored this also for internal cells wings, with following question: do uniformly provide same information? MethodsOur focused on four species, three them medical importance: Ae. aegypti, albopictus, scutellaris and Ve. dux , each represented by 30 female Each cell was characterized size shape after an elliptic Fourier analysis. For to be tentatively assigned its...
