Gurtler R, Laino M, Alvedro A, Enriquez G, Macchiaverna N, Gaspe M, et al.
Parasit Vectors . 2022 Jul; 15(1):257. PMID: 35831874
Background: Triatomine elimination efforts and the interruption of domestic transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi are hampered by pyrethroid resistance. Fluralaner, a long-lasting ectoparasiticide administered to dogs, substantially reduced site infestation and...

Laino M, Cardinal M, Gaspe M, Enriquez G, Alvedro A, Macchiaverna N, et al.
Med Vet Entomol . 2021 Dec; 36(2):149-158. PMID: 34866216
We assessed whether fluralaner administered to outbred healthy dogs reduced or supressed site infestation and abundance of pyrethroid-resistant populations of Triatoma infestans Klug (Heteroptera: Reduviidae). We conducted a placebo-controlled before-and-after...
