Public Health"],"abstract":"<jats:p>Various control interventions have been effective in the control of arthropod vectors to a certain extent; still, sustained vector control is an existing problem globally. Insecticide-based formulations have been found to be useful, however the proper delivery of active molecules to target vectors is important. Currently, synthetic pyrethroid deltamethrin (DM) has been microencapsulated in the emulsion paint binder and evaluated for long-term effectiveness against dengue vector <jats:italic>Aedes aegypti<\/jats:italic>. Different compositions of emulsion binder were prepared by varying the content of monomer and DM. A selection was made for the composition yielding the best combination of properties like solid content, intrinsic viscosity, and DM content. Developed formulation was tested against laboratory-reared and pathogen-free <jats:italic>Ae. aegypti<\/jats:italic> mosquitoes. Encapsulation of DM in emulsion binder during polymerization showed a uniform distribution. The optimized formulation was stable and did not have a considerable plasticizing effect. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that grain-like micro crystals of DM and surfactant sodium lauryl sulfate (SDS) were uniformly distributed on the formulation surface. The best optimized formulation was highly effective against dengue vector <jats:italic>Ae. aegypti<\/jats:italic> and found to provide efficacy for up to 18 months of application. The knockdown time (KDT) values KDT<jats:sub>10<\/jats:sub> and KDT<jats:sub>50<\/jats:sub> were 7.4 min (95% CI: 5.6\u20139.1) and 22.1 min (95% CI: 19.7\u201324.3) respectively, whereas 24 h corrected mortality was 90% (95% CI: 82.5\u201397.5) after 18 months of application (T18). The probit model used to determine knockdown values did not deviate from the linearity and displayed normal distribution of knockdown % with time for different formulations (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> \u2265 0.1). Presently developed DM microencapsulated emulsion binder was stable, smooth, and uniform. The binder displayed excellent anti-insect property and was capable of providing long-term effectiveness against dengue vectors <jats:italic>Ae. aegypti<\/jats:italic>. Such a formulation after field-scale evaluation could be very useful in attaining long-term protection from arthropod vectors.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fpubh.2021.686122","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,25]],"date-time":"2021-10-25T04:28:21Z","timestamp":1635136101000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Deltamethrin Microencapsulation in Emulsion Paint Binder and Its Long-Term Efficacy Against Dengue Vector Aedes aegypti"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"B.
