Zusammenfassung:To date, in India, DDT (organochlorine), malathion (organophosphorus) and deltamethrin, cyfluthrin, alpha-cypermethrin and lambda-cyhalothrin (synthetic pyrethroids) are the commonly used insecticides for vector control in public health. [...]the present data indicated development of resistance to pyrethroids in An. culicifacies is of great concern to Indian malaria control programme as it is in extensive use in public health programmes for IRS and for impregnation of bed nets.
