Abstract: ObjectiveTo study the susceptibility status of Aedes aegypti to the organophosphate insecticide temephos. Methods Samples of Ae. aegypti larvae were obtained, using ovitraps, from eight cities of the Federal District, central Brazil, in 2000 and 2001. Larvae were submitted to the diagnostic dose of 0.012 mg/l temephos, as recommended by standard World Health Organization methodology. Field populations were tested in parallel with reference strains Rockefeller and DIVAL, from the Environmental Surveillance Dire… Show more

“…No entanto o uso de inseticidas associados às ações educativas e de manejo ambiental não vem controlando as populações do vetor, e nem contribuindo com a queda dos índices de infestação e incidência da dengue. Tal fato se deve, em muitos casos, a freqüente exposição aos produtos químicos, que pode levar ao desenvolvimento da resistência, e dessa forma, inviabilizar os programas de controle, favorecendo a transmissão da dengue (Carvalho et al 2004).…”
