Border malaria in China: knowledge and use of personal protection by minority populations and implications for malaria control: a questionnaire-based survey (2008)
Journal Article
Moore, S. J., Min, X., Hill, N., Jones, C., Zaixing, Z., & Cameron, M. M. (2008). Border malaria in China: knowledge and use of personal protection by minority populations and implications for malaria control: a questionnaire-based survey. BMC Public Health, 8, Article 344. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2458-8-344

Background: Malaria control in remote, forested areas of the Mekong region relies on personal protection from mosquito bites. Uptake of these methods may be limited by knowledge of the link between mosquitoes and malaria as well as social and economi...

Comparative evaluation of methods used for sampling malaria vectors in the Kilombero Valley, South Eastern Tanzania (2008)
Journal Article
Oketch, F., Kotas, M., Kihonda, J., Killeen, G., & Moore, S. (2008). Comparative evaluation of methods used for sampling malaria vectors in the Kilombero Valley, South Eastern Tanzania. The Open tropical medicine journal, 1, 51-55. https://doi.org/10.2174/1874315300801010051

To monitor malaria transmission, effective sampling methods for host seeking vectors are necessary. The suitability of these methods can be determined by field measurements of their trapping efficiencies. We compared the efficiencies of the Human Lan...

A low-cost repellent for malaria vectors in the Americas: results of two field trials in Guatemala and Peru (2007)
Journal Article
Moore, S. J., Darling, S. T., Sihuincha, M., Padilla, N., & Devine, G. J. (2007). A low-cost repellent for malaria vectors in the Americas: results of two field trials in Guatemala and Peru. Malaria Journal, 6, Article 101. https://doi.org/10.1186/1475-2875-6-101

Background: The cost of mosquito repellents in Latin America has discouraged their wider use among the poor. To address this problem, a low-cost repellent was developed that reduces the level of expensive repellent actives by combining them with inex...

Field Evaluation of Traditionally Used Plant-Based Insect Repellents and Fumigants Against the Malaria Vector Anopheles darlingi in Riberalta, Bolivian Amazon (2007)
Journal Article
Moore, S. J., Hill, N., Ruiz, C., & Cameron, M. M. (2007). Field Evaluation of Traditionally Used Plant-Based Insect Repellents and Fumigants Against the Malaria Vector Anopheles darlingi in Riberalta, Bolivian Amazon. Journal of Medical Entomology, 44(4), 624-630. https://doi.org/10.1093/jmedent/44.4.624

Inexpensive insect repellents may be needed to supplement the use of impregnated bed-nets in the Amazon region, where the primary malaria vector, Anopheles darlingi (Root), is exophilic and feeds in the early evening. Three plants that are traditiona...
