Abstract:"BACKGROUND: Large distribution of long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) contributed to a significant decrease in malarial mortality. Unfortunately, large insecticide resistance in malaria vectors occurred and is a threat to the future use of these control approaches. The purpose of this study was to explore a new approach for vector control. Patches containing Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (Bti) solubilized Cry toxins mixed with sugar were developed and tested in the laboratory with pyrethroid-resistant Anopheles gambiae s.l. using tunnel tests. METHODS: Mosquitoes were released at 6:00 p.m. into a large tunnel separated by a bed net, perforated with nine holes, from a smaller chamber with a guinea pig. Nine Bti sugar patches (BSPs) were attached to the bed net between the nine holes. Fourteen hours later (8:00 a.m.), mosquitoes were collected from the tunnel and the guinea pig chamber. Live females were kept in cups and were fed a sugar solution (5%) for 72 h and delayed mortality was followed. The results were reported as passing, blood fed and mortality rates. RESULTS: Mosquito populations that are resistant to the insecticides in the bed net, exhibited high mortality (60%) in the presence of the BSPs. Untreated bed nets with patches in the tunnel test killed 66-95% of the mosquitoes that landed and untreated bed nets were superior to treated bed nets. CONCLUSION: BSPs efficiently kill resistant mosquitoes that land on treated and untreated bed nets and thus could ultimately reduce the number of vector-borne malarial mosquitoes"
