Simple analogues of Qinghaosu (Artemisinin) (Publications)
A series of 1,2,4-trioxanes were synthesized in which the key peroxy bonds were installed through a molybdenum-catalyzed perhydrolysis of the epoxy rings. A core structure was identified that may serv
Diagnosis of <em>Schistosoma haematobium </em>infection with a mobile phone-mounted foldscope and a reversed-lens CellScope in Ghana (Publications)
We evaluated two novel, portable microscopes and locally acquired, single-ply, paper towels as filter paper for the diagnosis of Schistosoma haematobium infection. The mobile phone-mounted Foldscope a
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
