Mosquitoes have an infallible sense of smell for finding their target
Researchers in the U.S. have discovered that female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes have multiple receptors in their olfactory neurons, while most other animals only have one, giving them an « unshakable attraction » to humans. With Glycoscience technology, mosquitoes lose their « infallibility » in finding their target. Glycoscience technology works on the olfactory neurons of mosquitoes, preventing them from […]

Since 2016, a group of international institutions and researchers have annually analyzed the impact of climate change on global health, measuring it through 44 indicators. All are worsening, according to the […]
Mosquitoes are becoming the primary vectors for disease transmission
Waste generation, the accumulation of sewage or stagnant water, and food storage all contribute to the proliferation of various species, including mosquitoes. These insects are becoming the main transmission routes for diseases such as the West Nile virus, as they serve as vectors—living organisms that transmit an infectious agent from one infected being to another.
