Study period | Insecticides | na | % Mortalityb | % KDTc | % Controld | Statuse |
|---|
Baseline | Deltamethrin, 12.5 μg/ml | 84 | 100 | 78.6 | 100 | S |
Intervention | Transfluthrin, 10 μg/ml | 238 | 100 | 99.6 | 100 | S |
Post-intervention | Permethrin, 21.5 μg/ml | 352 | 100 | 100 | 100 | S |
- an: number of mosquitoes examined
- b% mortality: mortality rate (expressed in %) after 2 h of exposure to insecticide
- cKDT: rate of mosquitoes “knocked down” (KD, expressed in %) recorded at diagnostic time. 30 min for deltamethrin and permethrin, 35 min for transfluthrin
- d% control: survival rate of the mosquito group that did not receive insecticide (expressed in %) calculated after 2 h observation
- eStatus: resistance status as defined by WHO. Briefly, a mortality in the range 98–100% indicates susceptibility (S); a mortality between 90 and 97% indicates suspected resistance; a mortality < 90% indicates resistance (R)
