Table 1 KD and 24-h mortality of the malaria vectors tested during the WHO insecticide susceptibility test

From: Transfluthrin eave-positioned targeted insecticide (EPTI) reduces human landing rate (HLR) of pyrethroid resistant and susceptible malaria vectors in a semi-field simulated peridomestic space

  1. a24-h mortality is defined as the proportion of dead after 24 h out of the total number of mosquitoes exposed. Proportion mortality is reported with 95% confidence interval
