SITUASI TERKINI VEKTOR DENGUE [Aedes aegypti Lin] DI JAWA TENGAH, INDONESIA
Abstract: Dengue viruses
infection spread world widely around the world causing 3,97 milliard people at
risk, including Indonesian. Anti-dengue virus have not been available so that
the prevention efforts were focused on controlling of Aedes population. Aim of
this study is to understand the recent situation of Ae. aegypti mosquitoes in
Dengue endemic areas. Dengue vector survey involved 20 houses around the Dengue
patient’s house in six districts in Central Java Province, and the domestic
water containers as object. The measured variables are container
characteristics and mosquito larvae existence. Larvae were reared to become
mosquito stadia, identified and subjected to insecticide susceptibility test.
Ae. aegypti population indices (House index, Container index and Breteau index)
ranged 27.3-55.2, 19.1-53.8, and 44.8-72.7 percents. Mosquito larvae were found
in seven types of container, respectively. Mortality rate of mosquitoes in
bioassay test were 17%, 67% and 100% based on permethrin-0.75%,
Deltamethrin-0.05% and Malathion-5% compounds.
