Short report
Sheila B Ogoma, Hassan Ngonyani, Emmanuel T Simfukwe, Anthony Mseka, Jason Moore, Gerry F Killeen Parasites & Vectors 2012, 5:54 (20 March 2012) The protective efficacy of transfluthrin-treated hessian strips, made from sisal fibers, in terms of reduced exposure to mosquito bites whilst outdoors, was measured. The treated strip reduced mosquito attack by >90% for 6 months. Image: Measuring the protective efficacy of transfluthrin-treated hessian strip against outdoor biting mosquitoes.

Target product profiles for protecting against outdoor malaria transmission Gerry F Killeen, Sarah J Moore Malaria Journal 2012, 11:17 (11 January 2012) The authors extend a previously published mathematical model to investigate the combined use of outdoor and indoor malaria vector control tools. These tools consist of a contact toxicant and a spatial repellent.

Such information is required for the implementation of the ongoing malaria elimination campaign in China. Image: Pig-baited bednet trap.
