Susceptibility Status

Malaria is of public health importance in Nigeria and may retain its status, if new intervention methods are not introduced or the current ones monitored. This study was carried out in Alimosho, Kosofe, Ibeju-Lekki and Badagry Local Government Areas (LGAs) of Lagos State to assess the susceptibility status of Anopheles gambiae s.l., a dominant malaria vector in the localities to DDT 4% and Permethrin 0.75%. Anopheles larvae were collected from larva habitats in both LGAs, reared to adults and fed with 10% sucrose solution. Nonblood fed 2-5 days old female mosquitoes were exposed to discriminating doses of DDT and permethrin according to the standard WHO procedures. The knockdown effect was recorded at interval of 10 minutes and mortality scored 24hours after exposure. Species identification was done by morphological characteristics. Results from the study showed that Anopheles gambiae s.l. are resistant to DDT (4%) and permethrin (0.75%) with 24hr post exposure mortality ranging from 15.00-24.0% and 4.25-22.0% respectively. The Knockdown Time (KDT) ranged from 30.8-941.95minutes for DDT and 12.6-85.51minutes for permethrin. KDT95 50 ranges from 117.49-27524.22 minutes and 117.49-412.1 minutes for DDT and permethrin respectively. All the LGAs showed high level of resistance to DDT and permethrin. The high level of insecticide resistance recorded in this study could be detrimental to the elimination of malaria. Therefore, integrated vector management is needed to effectively carry out to manage the development of insecticide resistance.

Background: Malaria is a parasitic vector-borne disease endemic in the tropical and subtropical countries of the world. The aim of this study was to investigate the current activities of the detoxification enzymes in resistant and susceptible Anopheles gambiae s.l. in northern Nigeria. Methods: Anopheles larvae were collected from northeast and northwestern Nigeria between Aug and Nov 2018. Biochemical analyses was carried out on the mosquitoes exposed to various insecticides (deltamethrin, DDT, bendiocarb, malathion) to measure and compare the enzymatic activities of the major detoxification enzymes (P450, GSTs, Esterase). Results: High levels of resistance was observed; DDT 37%-53% (95%, CI: 29-61), bendiocarb 44%-55% (CI: 39- 60) and deltamethrin 74%-82% (CI: 70-86). However, these mosquitoes were found to be susceptible to malathion 99%-100% (CI: 98-100). The P450 and GSTs enzymes were found to be elevated in the resistant mosquitoes exposed to deltamethrin (1.0240±0.1902); (1.3088±1.2478), DDT (1.7703±1.4528); (1.7462±0.9418) and bendiocarb (1.1814±0.0918); (1.4479±1.0083) compared to the Kisumu strain (0.764±0.4226); (0.6508±0.6542), (0.3875±0.3482); (0.4072±0.4916) and (0.6672±0.3949); (0.7126±0.7259) at P<0.05. Similarly, the resistant mosquitoes expressed increased activity to esterase (0.7606±1.1477), (0.3269±1.1957) and (2.8203±0.6488) compared to their susceptible counterpart (0.6841±0.7597), (0.7032±0.5380) and (0.6398±0.4159) at P<0.05. The enzyme ratio was found to be: P450 (1.341, 4.568 and 1.77); GSTs (2.011, 4.288 and 2.031); Esterases (1.111, 0.469 and 4.408). One way Anova and single sample t-test were also conducted to determine the effect of the enzymes on the resistant and susceptible strains. Conclusion: High level of insecticide resistance was observed with significant elevation of detoxification enzymes activities in the resistant mosquitoes.

Background: Timely entomological and insecticide resistance monitoring is a key to generating relevant data for vector management. We investigated the insecticide susceptibility status of Anopheles gambiae s.l. in eight rural farming communities in Southern Gombe, Nigeria. Methods: Overall, 3–5 days-old adult female Anopheles mosquitoes reared from field-collected immature stages between September and November, 2014 were exposed to the diagnostic doses of pyrethroids, organophosphate and carbamate insecticides using the Center for Disease Control Bottle bioassay. The observatory knockdown time from exposure to each insecticide was recorded up to two hours. The dead mosquitoes were then identified morphological­ly and by molecular assays. Results: Mortality results showed resistance in An. gambiae s.l. populations to bendiocarb (2.3–100%), deltamethrin (39–70%), pirimiphos-methyl (65–95%), dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane (0–38.1%), permethrin (0–46.3%) and lambda-cyhalothrin (42.5–86.4%). The few cases of full susceptibility were observed from lamdacyhalothrin exposed population of An. gambiae s.l. in Banbam and Pantami respectively. An. gambiae 177 (45%) was significantly higher (P< 0.05) than An. arabiensis 64 (16.3%), An. coluzzii 34 (8.7%) and An. gambiae/An. coluzzii hybrid 78 (19.8%). Conclusion: A strong evidence of widespread resistance in the major malaria vector species in Southern Gombe to all common classes of insecticides is a justification for the State Malaria Elimination Programme to consciously con­sider incorporating insecticide resistance management strategies into control programs in order to sustain the future of current control interventions

Susceptibility Status

Vector control programs worldwide are facing the challenge of mosquitoes becoming resistant to available insecticides. Larviciding is a crucial preventative measure for dengue control but data on insecticide resistance of larval Ae. aegypti in the Middle Eastern Region are limited. This study assesses the susceptibility status of Ae. aegypti collected from the two most important dengue foci in Saudi Arabia, Jeddah and Makkah, to important chemical and biological larvicides; the organophosphate temephos and Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis, Bti). Whilst worldwide, and particularly in Latin America, high-level resistance to temephos is common, Jeddah and Makkah populations exhibited full susceptibility to both temephos and Bti. These data suggest each can be considered by vector control programs for preventative dengue control in the region, as part of temporal rotations or spatial mosaics to manage insecticide resistance.
