Ability of near-infrared spectroscopy and chemometrics to predict the age of mosquitoes reared under different conditions

Abstract Background Practical, field-ready age-grading tools for mosquito vectors of disease are urgently needed because of the impact that daily survival has on vectorial capacity. Previous studies have shown that near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), in combination with chemometrics and predictive mo...
