Resistance characterisation

Knowing what a product will be up against

Susceptibility status of wild populations, resistance intensity, role of synergists and underlying mechanisms, kdr and Ace-1 mutations or detoxifying enzymes.

What we measure

  • Resistance status and intensity
  • Effect of synergists (PBO)
  • kdr and Ace-1 mutation frequencies

Methods

  • WHO tube tests
  • Bottle bioassays
  • Molecular biology
