Aedes aegypti is the primary vector of arboviruses such as Dengue. Currently, strategies to reduce the vector population are based on the use of insecticides such as organophosphates, organochlorines, carbamates, and pyrethroids, which have contributed to reducing the vector population. However, A. aegypti has developed resistance to compounds like permethrin and deltamethrin, which has been associated with the presence of polymorphisms (SNPs) in the voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC) gene, known as kdr mutations, which block the action of pyrethroids on the sodium channel. In this study, the kdr mutations L982W, S989P, A1007G, and I1011M/V were genotyped through sequencing. The results show that the analyzed A. aegypti population exhibits a wild-type genotype for the mentioned mutations, suggesting that other kdr mutations in different domains may be present in our population, conferring resistance to A. aegypti
