	35.	Research Is the Mbita trap a reliable tool for evaluating the density of anopheline vectors in the highlands of Madagascar? Rémi Laganier, Fara M Randimby, Voahirana Rajaonarivelo, Vincent Robert Malaria Journal 2003, 2:42 (19 November 2003) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Cited on BioMed Central \| Editor’s summary One method of collecting mosquitoes is to use human beings as bait. This is called human landing collection and is a reference method for evaluating mosquito density per person. The Mbita trap, consists of an entry-no return device whereby the humans in the trap cannot be bitten. This area of research is becoming increasingly important in view of the ethical inappropriateness of human landing collections. The fact that the Mbita trap is clearly a less efficient sampling tool in the highlands of Madagascar, where mosquitoes are more zoophilic than elsewhere, is of interest.

The potential role of rapid diagnostic tests, as the means to exclude malaria, is discussed.
	44.	Research *Invasion of Africa by a single pfcrt* allele of South East Asian type** Frédéric Ariey, Thierry Fandeur, Remy Durand, Milijaona Randrianarivelojosia, Ronan Jambou, Eric Legrand, Marie Ekala, Christiane Bouchier, Sandrine Cojean, Jean Duchemin, Vincent Robert, Jacques Le Bras, Odile Mercereau-Puijalon Malaria Journal 2006, 5:34 (26 April 2006) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Cited on BioMed Central \| Editor’s summary A microsatellite analysis of nearly 250 isolates from around the globe, indicates a very wide diversity in the intron-4 sequence, resulting in the identification of 17 distinct types among the 124 CQS isolates, whereas all but two of the 125 CQR isolates carried a single type. These data reinforce the hypothesis that a single pfcrt allele spread from Asia to Africa.
