SIT QUALITY CONTROL OF MALARIA VECTOR IN SUDAN

Tropical Medicine Research InstituteEpidemiology DepartmentTahani Alyas

Introduction

-*The Goal of SIT is to reduce or eliminate Malaria vector

-Successful program will be reached by High production of Sterile Males

-Mass rearing of biological vectors is not an easy task in a matter of suitable environments and required Facilities

-Performing of mass rearing facility need well established system.

Data Analysis, Presentation and Communication

the second step of Standard mass rearing process

- simple available program for collecting ,analyzing, and presenting the data

- Excel sheet - Statistical test

QC Square Parameters

*Biological Parameters *Facility Operational Parameters

*Environmental Parameters * Human Parameters

Biological

*Basic biological information ( life cycle,diet,temp, cage type……etc)

*Production requirement ( colony stock, number of sterile male,maximam production…etc)

*Production Schedules Fluctuation of current and future demands for ( egg, Sterile pupa, fertile ) pupa…etc)

Facility Operational Requirements

Most important - Auxillary areas like

Utilty room,workshop,ware house, cafeteria , restroom, and storage room .

Environmental Parameters

*different Diets (if it found) ,activities in different areas,contamination ,type of equipments. Number of trays, and human activities level all have its impact on mass rearing system .

*Recording and checking for environmental condition with and within the rearing facilities is from the most critical parameters for QC personal.

Human Parameters

*Level of Automation - minimize future union problems

- help staff mental and physical health ( ethical issue).

- Reduce likelihood of human error *Sufficient number of Staff members with

qualified skills *establishing of healthy environment for the

team with good knowledge and intensive care about their needs and requirements
