Green Synthesized Silver Nanoparticles In The Fight Against Mosquitoes.

      Аннотация: Mosquito vectors are solely responsible for transmitting diseases such as malaria, dengue, chikungunya, Japanese encephalitis, lymphatic ?lariasis and, recently, Zika virus. Vector control is an essential requirement in the management of epidemic diseases that are transmitted by mosquitoes. Notably, the excessive use of synthetic pesticides causes emergence of resistance in treated pests and also lead to harmful effect on non-target organisms. This has required an urgent search for development of new and improved mosquito control methods that are cheap, effective and safe for human health and the environment. The green synthesis of eco-friendly metal nanoparticles is a fast-growing branch of current nanoscience with a number of biomedical and entomological implications. The aim of this book is designed for research scholars who studies mosquito control through nanotechnology. The book contains six chapters. Chapter 1 provides a general introduction. In chapter 2, reviews of literature are given. The chapter 3 provides materials and methods. The observations are presented in chapter 4. The discussion is in chapter 5. Summary is in chapter 6. Finally provide references.
