TLDR
Although this pyrethroid was recently started to be used in the country to control the dengue vector, a decrease in susceptibility was noted between both periods analyzed, particularly in the city of Rio de Janeiro, indicating that resistance is due at least in part to a target site alteration.Abstract:
Resistance to cypermethrin of different Aedes aegypti Brazilian populations, collected at two successive periods (2001 and 2002/2003), was monitored using the insecticide-coated bottles bioassay. Slight modifications were included in the method to discriminate between mortality and the knock down effect. Although this pyrethroid was recently started to be used in the country to control the dengue vector, a decrease in susceptibility was noted between both periods analyzed, particularly in the city of Rio de Janeiro. The results indicate that resistance is due at least in part to a target site alteration.read more

Ion Channels as Targets for Insecticides
TL;DR: At field-use rates, a neurotoxic effect of the ecdysteroid agonist RH-5849 is observed that involves blockage of both muscle and neuronal potassium channels, and the future use of ion channels as targets for chemical and genetically engineered insecticides is discussed.

TL;DR: The method with which the percentage of sodium channel population that needs to be modified to cause repetitive after-discharges can be measured accurately is developed and is applicable to other neuroactive drugs that act through the threshold phenomenon.
