Saliva as a New Specific Biomarker of Exposure to Vector Bites

, a vector for re-emergent arbovirus diseases like chikungunya and dengue, points up the need for better control strategies and new tools to evaluate transmission risk. Human antibody (Ab) responses to mosquito salivary proteins could represent a reliable biomarker for evaluating human-vector contact and the efficacy of control programs. SGEs was observed, mainly in the highest responders. control strategies
