UTILITY OF MOSQUITO SURVEILLANCE DATA FOR SPATIAL PRIORITIZATION OF VECTOR CONTROL AGAINST DENGUE VIRUSES IN THREE BRAZILIAN CITIES

Utility of mosquito surveillance data for spatial prioritization of vector control against dengue viruses in three Brazilian cities

Abstract Background Vector control remains the primary defense against dengue fever.Its success relies on the assumption that vector density is related to disease transmission.Two operational issues include the amount by which mosquito density should be reduced to minimize transmission and the spatio-temporal allotment of resources needed to reduce

Measurement of the Filling Degree and Droplet Size of Individual Double Emulsion Droplets Using Raman Technologies

Double emulsions arouse Vape Pen Batteries great interest in various industries due to their ability to encapsulate value-adding ingredients.However, they tend to be unstable due to their complex structure.Several measurement techniques have already been developed to study and monitor the stability of double emulsions.Especially for the measurement

Oral language of school-aged children born pretermaturely: a population-based analysis from Madeira Island, Portugal

Premature birth and low birth weight are very important factors in neurodevelopment.Current research in this population focuses on children born prematurely, with no underlying complications in the post-natal period, who are likely to develop specific disorders with their language development and consequently with their learning capabilities too.Th

Microbunching instability in storage rings: Link between phase-space structure and terahertz coherent synchrotron radiation radio-frequency spectra

In storage rings, when the number of electrons in a bunch exceeds a threshold value, microstructures appear spontaneously in the bunch.Experimental observations of these microstructures and their evolution are indirect to obtain.In practice, most information is obtained from the terahertz coherent synchrotron radiation (THz CSR), since microstructu
