BACKGROUND: In order to provide a cost-effective tool to analyse pharmacogenetic markers in malaria treatment, DNA microarray technology was compared with sequencing of polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
Blood-stage parasitaemia and age determine <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> and <em>P. vivax</em> gametocytaemia in Papua New Guinea (Publications)
A better understanding of human-to-mosquito transmission is crucial to control malaria. In order to assess factors associated with gametocyte carriage, 2083 samples were collected in a cross-sectional
Design, synthesis and evaluation of praziquantel analogues and new molecular hybrids as potential antimalarial and anti-schistosomal agents (Publications)
Malaria and schistosomiasis are two of the neglected tropical diseases that persistently wreak havoc worldwide. Although many antimalarial drugs such as chloroquine are readily available, the emergence

CEM/ADR5000. Moreover, the dioncophyllines 1, 3, and 7 showed high-and specific-activities against the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum.
Use of poly(amidoamine) drug conjugates for the delivery of antimalarials to <em>Plasmodium</em> (Publications)
Current malaria therapeutics demands strategies able to selectively deliver drugs to Plasmodium-infected red blood cells (pRBCs) in order to limit the appearance of parasite resistance. Here, the poly
Evaluation of <em>in vitro</em> antiprotozoal activity of <em>Ajuga laxmannii </em>and its secondary metabolites (Publications)
Context Some Ajuga L. (Lamiaceae) species are traditionally used for the treatment of malaria, as well as fever, which is a common symptom of many parasitic diseases. Objective In the continuation of our
