How does PermaNet® 3.0 perform with different types and combinations of resistance mechanism?

The efficacy of PermaNet® 3.0 depends on the level of resistance and type of resistance mechanisms present in an area. PermaNet® 3.0 has been tested in experimental huts against different field strains of vector species with a variety of resistance mechanisms. Results from these studies have shown that PermaNet® 3.0 has a significantly improved efficacy when compared with mono-treated long lasting nets (i.e. pyrethroid only nets) and conventionally treated nets in terms of both mortality and/or personal protection.
