Salivary gland proteins of the human malaria vector, Anopheles dirus B were determined and analyzed. The amount of salivary gland proteins in mosquitoes aged between 3 - 10 days was approximately 1.08 ± 0.04 μg/female and 0.1 ± 0.05 μg/male. The salivary glands of both sexes displayed the same morph...
