Contribution of influenza immunity and virosomal-formulated synthetic peptide to cellular immune responses in a phase I subunit malaria vaccine trial (Publications)
We have demonstrated recently in a phase Ia clinical trial that synthetic malaria peptides delivered by immuno-potentiating reconstituted influenza virosomes (IRIV) induced long-lived peptide-specific
Malaria-infected mice are cured by oral administration of new artemisinin derivatives (Publications)
In four or five chemical steps from the 1,2,4-trioxane artemisinin, a new series of 23 trioxane dimers has been prepared. Eleven of these new trioxane dimers cure malaria-infected mice via oral dosing

A series of novel 2-nitro-1H-imidazole- and 3-nitro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-based aromatic and aliphatic amines were screened for anti-trypanosomal activity and mammalian cytotoxicity by the Drugs for Negle
Alcohol consumption and other lifestyle factors: avoidable sources of excess lead exposure (Publications)
Lead concentration in whole blood of a representative sample of 471 subjects aged 20 to 74 years and living in Basle was determined in 1989/90 by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The partici
