Malaria transmission in Libreville: results of a one year survey Jean-Romain Mourou, Thierry Coffinet, Fanny Jarjaval, Christelle Cotteaux, Eve Pradines, Lydie Godefroy, Maryvonne Kombila, Frédéric Pagès Malaria Journal 2012, 11:40 (9 February 2012) Clinical studies have shown a decline in the burden of malaria in Libreville, the capital city of Gabon, but the characteristics of transmission are poorly known. It appears that the decrease of transmission seen inperi-urban areas is probably more dependent of the socio-economic level of a quarter than of its location in the city.

Resistance was not correlated with a change of malaria species and/or molecular forms. The L1014S kdr allele was first identified in wild population of An. gambiae s.s and An. arabiensis hence confirming the expansion of pyrethroid resistance alleles in Africa.

Federica Santolamazza, Beniamino Caputo, Maria Calzetta, José L Vicente, Emiliano Mancini, Vincenzo Petrarca, João Pinto, Alessandra della Torre Malaria Journal 2011, 10:215 (2 August 2011) The results reveal that the PCR and PCR-RFLP approaches most commonly utilized to identify A. gambiae M and S forms are not fully interchangeable, as usually assumed. There are operational suggestions on the choice of the most convenient method for large-scale M- and S-form identification.
