and metofluthrin spatial repellents, as well as combined interventions for Plasmodium falciparum malaria in Anopleles minimus. Overall, all interventions had both personal and community effects, preventing [...] than just reduction in biting, to be parameterised and highlights the tools assessed as promising malaria interventions.
Antibodies elicited by a virosomally formulated <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> serine repeat antigen-5 derived peptide detect the processed 47kDa... (Publications)
Serine repeat antigen-5 (SERA5) is a candidate antigen for inclusion into a malaria subunit vaccine. During merozoite release and reinvasion the 120kDa SERA5 precursor protein (P120) is processed, and [...] peptide FB-23 is suitable for use in humans and represents a candidate component for a multi-valent malaria subunit vaccine targeting both sporozoites and blood stage parasites
Mefloquine - an aminoalcohol with promising antischistosomal properties in mice (Publications)
mefloquine, which is widely and effectively used for the treatment of malaria, has an impact on schistosomiasis in areas where both malaria and schistosomiasis co-exist

100 mg dapsone for children 10 or more years old) as a single dose. Children were followed-up for malaria parasitaemia at days 2, 7 and 14 after screening, randomization and treatment. The slide positivity [...] pyrimethamine-dapsone appears to be a better choice than chloroquine as a chemoprophylactic regimen for malaria in this area. Although they need to be confirmed in a larger study, these results may be of interest
Genotyping of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> infections by PCR: a comparative multicentre study (Publications)
Genetic diversity of malaria parasites represents a major issue in understanding several aspects of malaria infection and disease. Genotyping of Plasmodium falciparum infections with polymerase chain reaction
