Table 4 Man-biting rate, sporozoite rate, entomological inoculation rate, estimated mean inoculation per month and risk of receiving infection of Plasmodium knowlesi from Anopheles cracens in study areas
From: Entomologic investigation of Plasmodium knowlesi vectors in Kuala Lipis, Pahang, Malaysia
Species | Study Site | Months (Sporozoite) | Man-biting rate (ma) | Sporozoite rate s (95% CI) | Entomological inoculation rate (EIR) | Risk* |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Anopheles cracens | Fruit Orchard | January 2008 | 13.5 | 0.60 (0.52- 0.68) | 0.08 | 0.92 |
Forest | November 2007 | 2.8 | 2.90 (2.11-3.30) | 0.08 | 0.91 |
