Quantitative evaluation of a handheld light microscope for field diagnosis of soil-transmitted helminth infection (Publications)
We evaluated the Newton Nm1, a commercially available handheld light microscope and compared it with conventional light microscopy for the diagnosis of soil-transmitted helminth infections. A total of
Mobile phone microscopy for the diagnosis of soil-transmitted helminth infections: a proof-of-concept study (Publications)
We created a mobile phone microscope and assessed its accuracy for the diagnosis of soil-transmitted helminths compared with conventional microscopy. Mobile phone microscopy has a sensitivity of 69.4%
Xenortide biosynthesis by entomopathogenic <em>Xenorhabdus nematophila</em> (Publications)
The biosynthesis gene cluster of the xenortides and a new derivative, xenortide D, which is produced in only trace amounts, was identified in Xenorhabdus nematophila. The structure of xenortide D was
The bacterial redox signaller pyocyanin as an antiplasmodial agent: comparisons with its thioanalog methylene blue (Publications)
The quorum sensor and signalling molecule pyocyanin (PYO) contributes significantly to the pathophysiology of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections. Comparison to phenothiazine drugs suggests that the ant
Synthesis and antimalarial activity of some neocryptolepine analogues carrying a multifunctional linear and branched carbon-side chains (Publications)
The synthesis and in vitro antimalarial activity of several neocryptolepine analogues carrying either a linear or branched dibasic side chain at C11 are described. Many of these neocryptolepine analog
