Abstract:
The evaluation trial was conducted from August 2004 to March 2005 in the laboratory of the National Institute of Malariolgy, Parasitology and Entomology, Ha Noi. Bioassays with An.dirus and Ae.aegypti (reared mosquitoes) were made according to the WHO method for evaluation of susceptibility and residual effects of the insecticide on the painted and nylon wall surface. Ale lose sprayed at the dose of 30mg ai/m2 were found to produce residual effect for 6-7 months on the painted wall surfaces (mosquito mortalities: 51.1%-67.8%) and for 4-5 months on nylon wall surface (mosquito mortality: 55.6%-67.8%).
