Abstract :

Susceptibility to organophosphates was evaluated in 2 populations of Culex quinquefasciatus from the department of Atlantico, Colombia. Bioassays for temephos, malathion, and pirimiphos-methyl were performed with 3rd-stage larvae and adult females of Cx. quinquefasciatus from the municipalities of Soledad and Puerto Colombia, following the methods of the World Health Organization and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, respectively. The median lethal concentration (LC50) and 90% lethal concentration (LC90) resistance ratios (RRLC50 and RRLC90) were determined for each insecticide in the field populations evaluated, using the Cartagena strain as the susceptible control. Relative to LC50 and LC90 of the Cartagena strain, the population from Puerto Colombia was moderately resistant to temephos (RRLC50 5.7-fold) and malathion (RRLC50 8.6-fold, RRLC90 9-fold) and susceptible to pirimiphos-methyl (RRLC50 and RRLC90 < 5-fold). The population from Soledad was susceptible to temephos and pirimiphos-methyl (RRLC50 and RRLC90 < 5-fold) and showed moderate resistance to malathion (RRLC50 7.5-fold). It is important to emphasize that routine monitoring of insecticide resistance in Cx. quinquefasciatus helps us detect resistance early and improve the effectiveness of control strategies.
