Studies on <em>Dipetalonema viteae</em> (Filarioidea). 5. Ultrastructural aspects of the antibody-dependent cell-mediated destruction of microfilariae (Publications)
The antibody-dependent cell-mediated destruction of Dipetalonema viteae microfilariae was followed by electron microscopy both in vitro and within micropore chambers in vivo. There was a correlation b
Monepantel allosterically activates DEG-3/DES-2 channels of the gastrointestinal nematode <em>Haemonchus contortus</em> (Publications)
Monepantel is the first drug of a new family of anthelmintics, the amino acetonitrile derivatives (AAD), presently used to treat ruminants infected with gastrointestinal nematodes such as Haemonchus c
Exposure to moulds and actinomycetes in Alpine farms: a nested environmental study of the PASTURE cohort (Publications)
Several studies have suggested that children exposed to a farm environment are protected against allergies and asthma. The present work is an environmental study nested within the PASTURE cohort and i
Estimating the duration of Plasmodium falciparum infection from trials of indoor residual spraying (Publications)
We reviewed the use of simple mathematical models to estimate the duration of Plasmodium falciparum infection after transmission has been interrupted. We then fit an exponential decay model to repeate
Statistical analysis of personal radiofrequency electromagnetic field measurements with nondetects (Publications)
Exposimeters are increasingly applied in bioelectromagnetic research to determine personal radiofrequency electromagnetic field (RF-EMF) exposure. The main advantages of exposimeter measurements are t
Spatial variability of different fractions of particulate matter within an urban environment and between urban and rural sites (Publications)
The spatial variability of different fractions of particulate matter (PM) was investigated in the city of Basel, Switzerland, based on measurements performed throughout 1997 with a mobile monitoring s
Symptoms of ill health ascribed to electromagnetic field exposure--a questionnaire survey (Publications)
From June 2001, health questionnaires were distributed to people who complained about symptoms of ill health which they ascribed to exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF). The objective of the surve
Quality of drinking-water at source and point-of-consumption-drinking cup as a high potential recontamination risk: a field study in Bolivia (Publications)
In-house contamination of drinking-water is a persistent problem in developing countries. This study aimed at identifying critical points of contamination and determining the extent of recontamination
