Ronald Ross experiment on Malaria
Explanation:
- Ross began to try to confirm the hypothesis of Alphonse Ravelin and Charles Manson that the mosquito Participated in the spread of malaria and regularly communicated with Manson about his findings. The Indian Medical Service, however, impeded his development by ordering him to move from Madras to a malaria-free environment in Rajputana.
- Ross promised to resign, but the Indian government gave him special responsibilities within a limited time-year to examine malaria and kala azar after Manson made representations on his behalf (visceral leishmaniasis). Ross made his historic discovery in Secunderabad on August 20, 1897.
- He discovered the malaria parasite by examining the stomach tissue of an anopheline mosquito that had been fed four days previously on a malarious patient, and went on to prove the involvement of Anopheles mosquitos in the transmission of malaria parasites in people.
- In India, he continued his malaria research, this time utilising a more practical experimental model: malaria in birds. He had shown that mosquitoes might act as intermediate hosts for avian malaria by July 1898.
- He discovered that malaria parasites may develop in mosquitos and travel to the insects' salivary glands, allowing the mosquitos to infect additional birds during successive blood meals after feeding them on afflicted birds.
- Ross left the Indian Medical Service in 1899 and returned to England. He took a personal chair in Tropical Sanitation at Liverpool University and worked for the newly founded Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, first as a lecturer and then as a Professor of Tropical Medicine. One of his initial responsibilities at the School was to research and develop anti-malaria programmes in West Africa.
- Ross went on a number of excursions to explore and develop malaria control strategies, including visits to Ismailia in Egypt in 1902 at the request of the Suez Canal Company, Panama in 1904, Greece in 1906, and Mauritius in 1907-1908.
