Investigating Molecular Mechanisms of Insecticide Resistance in the Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo

Adult Anopheles gambiae s.l. and Anopheles funestus s.l. were collected from two sites in Sud-Kivu province and one site in Haut-Uélé province and PCR-screened for the presence of 11 resistance mutations, to provide additional information on frequency of resistance mechanisms in the eastern DRC, and to critically evaluate the utility of these markers for prospective country-wide resistance monitoring.
