Evaluation of Foldscope, a paper-based origami microscope useful for taxonomic identification of Rhipicephalus sanguineus ticks
The objective of this work is to evaluate an origami-based microscope Foldscope as a tool to support taxonomic identification of Rhipicephalus sanguineus ticks on the field. A total of 257 ticks were collected from five neighborhoods in the city of Chihuahua, Mexico. Representative morphological str...

A total of 257 ticks were collected from five neighborhoods in the city of Chihuahua, Mexico. Representative morphological structures were analyzed for taxonomic identification with a stereoscope and a Foldscope. It was possible to identify key morphological structures such as palps, base of capitulum, eyes, anal groove, festoons, first coxa and spiracular plate on specimens of 7 mm in length or less. Foldscope is a tool that allows morphological identification of ticks on the field. It may be useful for epidemiological studies on the field and on social outreach programs aimed at raising awareness about vector-borne diseases. El objetivo de este trabajo es evaluar la función de un microscopio de origami Foldscope como herramienta de apoyo en la identificación taxonómica de garrapatas Rhipicephalus sanguineus. Se recolectaron 257 muestras de garrapatas en cinco colonias de la ciudad de Chihuahua, México. Se analizaron las estructuras morfológicas más representativas para su identificación taxonómica con un estereoscopio y Foldscope. Con el microscopio de papel fue posible identificar palpos, base del gnatosoma, ojos, surco anal, festones, primera coxa, placa estigmatal y escudo en especímenes menores a 7 mm de longitud. El Foldscope es una herramienta que permite la identificación de garrapatas en campo, útil para estudios de vigilancia epidemiológica y potenciales campañas de concientización ciudadana en enfermedades transmitidas por vector.Universidad de Guanajuato2018-10-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtículo revisado por paresapplication/xmltext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://www.actauniversitaria.ugto.mx/index.php/acta/article/view/213410.15174/au.2018.2134Acta Universitaria; Vol. 28 Núm. 4 (2018); 19-24Acta Universitaria; Vol. 28 No. 4 (2018); 19-242007-96210188-6266reponame:Acta Universitariainstname:UNIVERSIDAD DE GUANAJUATOinstacron:UGTOspahttps://www.actauniversitaria.ugto.mx/index.php/acta/article/view/2134/3233https://www.actauniversitaria.ugto.mx/index.php/acta/article/view/2134/htmlhttps://www.actauniversitaria.ugto.mx/index.php/acta/article/view/2134/pdfDerechos de autor 2018 Acta Universitariainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:www.actauniversitaria.ugto.mx:article/21342024-08-16T21:06:36Z |
