Service 3 - Bioassays with autochthonous, non-autochthonous and/or invasive arthropod species

We offer experiments using mosquito vector colonies available at VIASEF, including Anopheles coluzzii, Aedes aegypti, Aedes albopictus, and Culex quinquefasciatus. These established mosquito strains are ideal for a wide range of research applications and have been extensively characterized for their biology, behavior, and vector competence. In addition, we can also host users' own mosquito colony or strain of interest in our lab for the duration of the experiment, subject to specific agreement. This service allows you to conduct your research using your preferred mosquito strain while leveraging our expertise, facilities, and resources.

Whether you require an established mosquito vector strain or your own custom strain, our team is dedicated to providing high-quality experimental services tailored to your needs. Contact us to discuss your requirements and learn how we can support your research goals.
