Bachelor Thesis
Chosen to be patented by the university. Currently in process to get the Outstanding Distinction. Created for entomological surveillance, as part of the dengue control program. Catch Aedes aegypti gravid females, aimed to provide information about the presence of adult mosquitoes in the surveillance area and collect samples of blood-fed mosquitoes for the conduit of viral analysis. The trap was designed following the scientific method by conducting a series of experiments with an Aedes aegypti lab colony to proof and evaluate concepts. Final evaluation tests were made to determine it’s efficiency, where the trap got results of:
90.5% catching rate 100% retention rate Meets the required biosafety standards & optimize the surveillance process.
Trap for collection and surveillance of the mosquito Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae)
*Nothing of the final concept is shown due to current patent application.
