Efecto atrayente del ácido láctico sobre poblaciones naturales de Anopheles albimanus de Laredo (Trujillo, Perú)
Resumen
La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo determinar cuál de las concentraciones de ácido láctico: de 0.1 ó 1%, produce mayor atracción sobre una población de Anopheles albimanus hembra, obtenidos a partir de larvas colectadas en criaderos naturales, del sector Conache-Laredo (Trujillo, Perú). Para determinar la concentración atrayente, se escogieron 60 hembras que fueron sometidas al ácido láctico a 0.1% y 1% en un olfatómetro de acrílico en forma de “Y”. El análisis estadístico de los datos se realizó mediante la prueba T de student. Se demostró que el ácido láctico al 1% tuvo el mayor efecto atrayente sobre la población utilizada de An. albimanus.
Palabras clave: Anopheles, ácido láctico, concentración, olfatómetro.
