Submitted by esr04 on Tue, 2010-08-24 16:40A new TransMalariaBloc study from the University of Camerino reports on the malaria transmission blocking effect of NeemAzal(R), an azadirachtin-enriched extract produced from the seeds of neem, an evergreen tree native to the Indian subcontinent.
TransMalariaBloc scientists confirm that vector mortaility is age and parasite density dependent
Submitted by g.christophides on Tue, 2010-08-24 16:38
A study by TransMalariaBloc researchers confirms that vector mortality is dependent on both insect age and the density of Plasmodium infection. Importantly, these findings show how parasite density can influence malaria transmission dynamics, and therefore may have crucial impact on the implementation of novel transmission blocking strategies.
