Prior blood feeding effects on susceptibility of Anopheles gambiae (Diptera: Culicidae) to infection with cultured Plasmodium falciparum (Haemosporida: Plasmodiidae)
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 1994)
We examined the relative susceptibilities of Anopheles gambiae Giles of different physiological ages to infection with cultured Plasmodium falciparum (Welch). Cohorts of mosquitoes were divided into three groups; one was ...
Impact of variations in temperature on early Plasmodium falciparum development in Anopheles stephensi
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 1995)
Sporozoite transmission by Anopheles freeborni and Anopheles gambiae experimentally infected with Plasmodium falciparum
(The American Mosquito Control Association, 1992)
A micro-membrane feeding technique was used to evaluate sporozoite transmission for Anopheles freeborni and An. gambiae experimentally infected with Plasmodium falciparum. From cohorts of infected mosquitoes with equivalent ...
Quantitation of Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites transmitted in vitro by experimentally infected Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles stephensi
(American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1991)
The frequency and numbers of Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites transmitted in vitro and corresponding sporozoite loads were determined for experimentally infected Anopheles gambiae and An. stephensi. Geometric mean (GM) ...
Sporogonic development of cultured Plasmodium falciparum in six species of laboratory-reared Anopheles mosquitoes
(American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1994)
Sporogonic development of cultured Plasmodium falciparum was compared in six species of Anopheles mosquitoes. A reference species, A. gambiae, was selected as the standard for comparison. Estimates of absolute densities ...
Concentration of human erythrocytes by anopheline mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) during feeding
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 1991-11)
Erythrocyte densities in the blood meals of six Anopheles mosquito species were compared with those of human host erythrocyte densities. During engorgement, An. gambiae Giles and An. stephensi Liston concentrated erythrocytes ...
Predicting key malaria transmission factors, biting and entomological inoculation rates, using modelled soil moisture in Kenya
(Wiley, 1998-10)
While malaria transmission varies seasonally, large inter-annual heterogeneity of malaria incidence occurs. Variability in entomological parameters, biting rates and entomological inoculation rates (EIR) have been strongly ...
Plasmodium falciparum: The population structure of mature gametocyte cultures has little effect on their innate fertility
(Elsevier BV, 1994)
In vitro cultured Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes were fed to Anopheles gambiae (G3) mosquitoes to identify parasite population characteristics useful for predicting successful mosquito infections. Parameters were collected ...
Exflagellation responses of cultured Plasmodium falciparum (Haemosporida: Plasmodiidae) gametocytes to human sera and midguts of anopheline mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae)
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 1994)
The process of exflagellation was quantified for cultured Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes exposed to human sera and midgut homogenates from six vector species of Anopheles mosquitoes. Neither serum factors related to ...
Ingestion of Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites during transmission by anopheline mosquitoes
(American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1992)
We investigated the process of sporozoite transmission during blood feeding for Anopheles gambiae and An. stephensi experimentally infected with Plasmodium falciparum. When infective mosquitoes were fed 22-25 days postinfection ...
