Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Mosquito Repellent on the Transmission Model of Chikungunya FeverSurapol Naowarat, Prasit Thongjaem, I. Ming TangProblem statement: In 2008 there was a large outbreak of Chikungunya fever in southern Thailand. Chikungunya fever is an emerging disease which tends to affect rubber plantation and fruit orchard workers more than other occupation. This study we considers the efficacy of using mosquito repellent as a way to prevent and control the spread of Chikungunya fever. The mathematical model … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 14 Feb 2012 · 7,514 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAspergillus Niger Metabolites Efficacies Against the Mosquito Larval (Culex Quinquefasciatus, Anopheles Stephensi and Aedes Aegypti) Population after Column ChromatographyNamita Soni, Soam PrakashProblem statement: Mosquito is a very common vector of several tropical diseases such as malaria, filariasis, dengue and chikungunya. Till todate, many xenobiotics have been used to control mosquito population and protect people from mosquito born diseases but increasing rate of resistance against these xenobiotics is a major concern in the disease control management. In contrast, extensive use of these … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 21 Dec 2011 · 15,205 accessesView PDFCite

Elhussein, Nour A. Osman et al.Problem statement: Certain basil essential oils were claimed to have a larvicidal activity towards mosquito's larvae. To test this claim the essential oils of four accessions of basil grown in Sudan were selected and tested for Anopheles larvae. Malaria is the major health problem in the Sudan and the whole country is now considered endemic, with varying degrees, about 35,000 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 8,825 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSIR Transmission Model of Dengue Virus Taking Into Account Two Species of Mosquitoes and an Age Structure in the Human PopulationR. Sungchasit, P. Pongsumpun, I. M. TangDengue is a vector-borne disease. It is transmitted to humans by the bites of the Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes. The human population is separated into two classes, a child class and an adult class, each class being described by a SIR model. The transmission rates of the two mosquito species are different and depend on what class the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 6 · 28 Jul 2015 · 6,511 accessesView PDFCite
