Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 7
Abstract
Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains as one of the serious health problems given priority of Indonesia. Vector resistance to insecticides is one of the problems in DHF vector control program in Indonesia. This study aimed to analyze the status of vector resistance Ae. Aegypti to insecticides were already used in DHF vector control programs in Ternate City.The results showed that the larvae Ae. aegypti from 20 sub-districts, 19 sub-districts were resistant to temephoslarvacide (Lethal Consentrase (LC) 95> 0.02 mg / L), only Ae. aegypti larvae from Makassar Barat which has showed susceptible (LC95: 0.012 mg / L). Resistance Ratio (RR) analysis to Ae.aegyptilarvae to temephosalso showed resistance (RR: 6-69). Result of resistance status to adult mosquito Ae.aegyptishowed that Ae. aegypti of 19 districts has been resistant to malathion (mortality 24 h <80%), only Ae. aegypti from Sulamadaha has a tolerant status of Malation (mortality 24 h = 89.3%). Resistance status of Ae.aegypti to Cypermethrin showed that 20 subdistricts were resistant (mortality 24 h <80%). Therefore, DHFvector control programs in Ternate City should be done immediately by insecticide rotation with carbamate group.
