Specimens were collected with a variety of methods, including gravid traps, 21 encephalitis vector survey suction traps (Bioquip, Rancho Domingo, CA) baited with and without CO2, CDC light traps (John W. Hock Company, Gainesville, FL), vacuum aspiration, and larval collections.
Ongoing surveillance, vector surveys, and epidemiologic studies to identify risk factors will provide key information for controlling dengue.
The Rockefeller Foundation started a 1-year study of malaria around the Maracay District of Lake Valencia, which included patient histories, and spleen, blood, and vector surveys.
A discriminant analysis model based on weather data and reported vector surveys was developed to predict the seasonal and geographic distribution of P. papatasi in this region.
Following the identification of SBV as a disease-causing agent, several European countries possessing on-going vector surveys were able to identify various Culicoides species as potential vectors through the screening of late summer midge pools for the presence of SBV [ 16, 17].
In spite of the shared insect vectors, surveys of hop plantings indicate that AHLV generally occurs at a lower frequency than the other carlaviruses [ 8].
In September 1994 (epoch 1994.75), in the framework of a joint project between the CGG, PDTU and the former ING a new vector magnetic survey measuring F, inclination I and declination D (Chiappini et al., 1997, 1999) covered the Albanian territory.
Mass blood surveys, active case detection, passive case detection, and vector density surveys were carried out in selected areas of Sargodha district from September 2008 to August 2009.
The properties of the adeno-associated virus (AAV) as a viral vector are surveyed with emphasis on those properties best suited for ribozyme-based therapies in the retina.
This process aims to apportion vector soil surveys into raster (gridded) representations of the component soils that are often aggregated together in map unit designs.
Odour baited traps clearly offer a promising means to survey vector mosquitoes, as they can be applied in the absence of a human host and allow for standardised simultaneous use of multiple traps.
