Royal Guard is a new insecticide-treated bed-net incorporated with a mixture of alpha-
cypermethrin and pyriproxyfen (an insect growth regulator). We assessed its efficacy and …

Background Progress in malaria control is under threat by wide-scale insecticide resistance
in malaria vectors. Two recent vector control products have been developed: a long-lasting …

Background Alternative compounds which can complement pyrethroids on long-lasting
insecticidal nets (LN) in the control of pyrethroid resistant malaria vectors are urgently …

Background Due to the spread of pyrethroid-resistance in malaria vectors in Africa, new
strategies and tools are urgently needed to better control malaria transmission. The aim of …

Pyrethroid-resistant malaria vectors have become a serious threat for malaria control, and
bed nets that reduce the development of resistance are urgently needed. Here, we tested …

Background Recent reductions in malaria in sub-Saharan Africa have been associated with
increased coverage with long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs). Pyrethroids are currently the …

Background Malaria control today is threatened by widespread insecticide resistance in
vector populations. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends the use of a mixture …

A new approach is proposed in the treatment of mosquito nets, using a 'two‐in‐
one'combination of pyrethroid and non‐pyrethroid insecticides applied to different parts of …

Due to the rapid extension of pyrethroid resistance in malaria vectors worldwide,
manufacturers are developing new vector control tools including insecticide mixtures …

Pyrethroid resistance is becoming a major problem for vector control programs, because at
present, there are few suitable chemical substitutes for pyrethroids, as when used on bed …
