The Effect of Preservation Methods on Predicting Mosquito Age by Near Infrared Spectroscopy

Determining mosquito age is important to evaluate vector control programs because the ability to transmit diseases is age dependent. Current age-grading techniques require dissection or RNA extraction. Near infrared spectroscopy has been used to rapidly and nondestructively determine the age of fres...
