Current Resistance Status to Synthetic Pyrethroid Insecticides in Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) Populations from Different regions of Bogor City, Indonesia
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 9
Abstract
Dengue fever (DF) Aedes aegypti (L.) is a primary vector of dengue fever in Bogor City in Indonesia. The use of pyrethroid insecticides are commonly used in the vector control program. The current research evaluatedthe distribution of the DF cases in relation tothe insecticide resistance status of the vector to deltamethrin, apyrethroid compound. Ae. aegypti populations were collected in 35 villages by using ovitraps, the collected eggs were reared in the laboratory for2 generations, and susceptibility tests to deltamethrin were conducted on unfed female mosquitoes 3 to 5 days old. WHO bioassays were performed with impregnated papers with 0.025% deltamethrin. Deltamethrin resistance was detected in 30 (85.7%) Ae. aegypti populations (Baranang Siang, Katu Lampa, Lawang Gintung, Tegal Lega, Kebon Kelapa, Cilendek Barat, Menteng, Kebon Pedes, Kedung Waringin, Bantar Jati, Tegal Gundil, Kayu Manis, Ciluar, Kedung Halang, Ciwaringin, Panaragan, Pamoyanan, Semplak, Sindang Rasa, Sindang Sari, Cikaret, Cipaku, Empang, Pasir Mulya, Loji, Sempur, Tanah Baru, Cimahpar, and Kencana strains); 4 (11.4%) populations (Sukadamai, Harjasari, Kertamaya and Situ Gede) were tolerant, and one (2.9%) population was susceptible (Cibadak). The current study clearly shows that the resistant strain against deltametrin was found in the most Ae. aegypti strain in Bogor City. This informations would help in formulating the strategy of vector control, especially in management of insecticide resistance and insecticide policy as well.
