Investigation of the concentration of bacteria and their cell envelope components in indoor air in two elementary schools (Publications)
Bacterial cell envelope components are widely distributed in airborne dust, where they act as inflammatory agents causing respiratory symptoms. Measurements of these agents and other environmental fac
Cleavage of trypanosome surface glycoproteins by alkaline trypsin-like enzyme(s) in the midgut of <em>Glossina morsitans</em> (Publications)
EP and GPEET procyclin, the major surface glycoproteins of procyclic forms of Trypanosoma brucei, are truncated by proteases in the midgut of the tsetse fly Glossina morsitans morsitans. We show that
