Grant Activity:
Advancing enhanced biosecurity of major arboviral and other vector-borne diseases in Australia through near infrared spectroscopy technology
Purpose:
Infectious diseases transmitted by mosquitoes and ticks represent a significant health threat to the Australian biosecurity. Current detection methods for these pathogens are expensive, time consuming and require highly trained personnel. We propose to conduct a set of experiments to test an innovative, real time technique based on infrared light to identify infected mosquitoes and ticks and demonstrate its capacity as surveillance tool for vector control programs against these pathogens.
