Diversity of human intestinal helminthiasis in Lao PDR (Publications)
Food-borne trematodiasis is an emerging public health problem, including in Lao PDR. We investigated the diversity of intestinal helminthes and polyparasitism in patients with hepatobiliary or intesti
Spatially explicit <em>Schistosoma</em> infection risk in eastern Africa using Bayesian geostatistical modelling (Publications)
Schistosomiasis remains one of the most prevalent parasitic diseases in the tropics and subtropics, but current statistics are outdated due to demographic and ecological transformations and ongoing co
Flavonoids redirect PIN-mediated polar auxin fluxes during root gravitropic responses (Publications)
The rate, polarity, and symmetry of the flow of the plant hormone auxin are determined by the polar cellular localization of PIN-FORMED (PIN) auxin efflux carriers. Flavonoids, a class of secondary pl
MADAP, a flexible clustering tool for the interpretation of one-dimensional genome annotation data (Publications)
A recurring task in the analysis of mass genome annotation data from high-throughput technologies is the identification of peaks or clusters in a noisy signal profile. Examples of such applications ar
Panorganismal metabolic response modelling of an experimental <em>Echinostoma caproni </em>infection in the mouse (Publications)
Metabolic profiling of host tissues and biofluids during parasitic infections can reveal new biomarker information and aid the elucidation of mechanisms of disease. The multicompartmental metabolic ef
Disease awareness of the poultry keepers in Switzerland and their access to information concerning highly pathogenic avian influenza (Publications)
The passive surveillance of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) in domestic poultry is based essentially on the reporting of suspicious clinical cases by the poultry keepers to the veterinary ser
Reaction pattern to histamine and codeine in a human intradermal skin test model (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Skin prick and intradermal skin tests (IDT) are useful tools in evaluating IgE-mediated allergic disorders. In the literature, many variations of the techniques used are described. No gene
