  • Status of dengue vector breeding in pineapple plantations and environmental factors affecting their breeding 
    Dassanayaka, D.M.T.; Aryaprema, V.S.; Jayasooriya, H.T.R.; Abeyewickreme, W. (Moleclar Medicine Unit, Faculty of Medicine, University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka, 2015)
    BACKGROUND: Pineapple plantations are believed to have contributed to the transmission of dengue fever in pineapple growing areas in Sri Lanka. Hence, there is a need to introduce effective control methods to reduce dengue ...
  • Synthesis of Fe2O3 nanoparticles for the development of a rapid diagnostic test kit for dengue detection 
    Jayarathna, I.P.L.; Gunathilaka, P.A.D.H.N.; Athapaththu, A.M.M.H.; Abeyewickreme, W. (Moleclar Medicine Unit, Faculty of Medicine, University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka, 2015)
    BACKGROUND: Hybrid nanoparticles have great potential for biotechnological and biomedical applications. It was recently proposed that biopolymer/co-shell nano-materials could be easily obtained by adapting traditional ...
  • Transgenic mosquitoes to control vector-borne diseases 
    Sampath, L.D.S.; Gunawardene, Y.I.N.S.; Dassanayake, R.S. (Molecular Medicine Unit, Faculty of Medicine, University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka, 2015)
    The mosquito-borne diseases have achieved the world wide attention due to the high number of cases and deaths reported to WHO annually. Such diseases include malaria and dengue fever. Control of these diseases has been ...
  • Vector prevalence and insecticide resistance status of Aedes sp. in dengue high and low risk areas in the Colombo District 
    Janaki, M.D.S.; Aryapreme, V.S.; Jayasooriya, H.T.R.; Abeyewickreme, W. (Moleclar Medicine Unit, Faculty of Medicine, University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka, 2015)
    BACKGROUND: In areas where dengue transmission is high, space spraying against adult Aedes sp. is practiced to reduce the density of infected mosquitoes and thereby reduce transmission within a very short time. Repeated ...
