Cytochrome P450 associated with insecticideresistance catalyzes cuticular hydrocarbonproduction in Anopheles gambiae

The role of cuticle changes in insecticide resistance in the major malariavector Anopheles gambiae was assessed. The rate of internalization of14C deltamethrin was significantly slower in a resistant strain than in asusceptible strain. Topical application of an acetone insecticide formu-lation to circumv...
