They are widespread among living beings where they are involved in many biological roles reporting beneficial actions. To date, more than 750 carotenoids have been described in nature. Humans cannot synthesize carotenoids de novo, thus they are mainly obtained through diet. In fact, carotenoids are consistently found in tissues or biological fluids where they play a beneficial decreasing the risk of developing some diseases. During the last half-century, significant advances in carotenoids research have been made. This book highlights new perspectives and applications of carotenoids including characterization and isolation of new compounds (including rare carotenoids). 517 $aCarotenoids 606 $aCarotenoids$xTherapeutic use 615 0$aCarotenoids$xTherapeutic use. 676 $a615.328 702 $aMarti?nez-Espinosa$b Rosa Mar?ia 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910633969803321 996 $aCarotenoids$983635 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05301nam 2200385 450 001 9910688354003321 005 20230701121037.0 035 $a(CKB)5580000000514355 035 $a(NjHacI)995580000000514355 035 $a(EXLCZ)995580000000514355 100 $a20230701d2023 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aMosquito Research $erecent advances in pathogen interactions, immunity, and vector control strategies /$fedited by Henry Puerta-Guardo, Pablo Manrique-Saide 210 1$aLondon :$cIntechOpen,$d2023. 210 4$dİ2023 215 $a1 online resource (282 pages) 311 $a1-80355-854-7 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aPreface -- Section 1 Mosquito Biology, Ecology and Vector-Parasite Interactions -- Chapter 1 Mosquito Excito-Repellency: Effects on Behavior and the Development of Insecticide Resistance by Yamili J.

Blood-feeding biters (e.g., Anopheles, Culex, Aedes, Ochlerotatus, and Mansonia) are among the most influential vectors for harboring and transmitting mosquito-borne diseases (MBDs) such as Zika, Japanese encephalitis, West Nile fever, dengue fever, yellow fever, and malaria, among other diseases. More than 700 million human infections and 725,000 deaths occur every year. Mosquitoes are increasing in number worldwide, yet there are still no effective vaccines or prevention strategies. Thus, traditional vector control strategies remain the most common ways to combat these diseases. Despite this, MBDs linger as one of the major challenges for public health and vector control programs at both global and local levels. This book provides a comprehensive overview of MBDs and vector control strategies. 606 $aMosquitoes$xControl 615 0$aMosquitoes$xControl. 676 $a614.4323 702 $aPuerta-Guardo$b Henry 702 $aManrique-Saide$b Pablo 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910688354003321 996 $aMosquito Research$93084650 997 $aUNINA
