Plasmodium falciparum: Extensive polymorphism in merozoite surface antigen 2 alleles in an area with endemic malaria in Papua New Guinea. Experimental Parasitology 79, 106-116. The prevalence of Plasm
Rapid identification of malaria vaccine candidates based on alpha-helical coiled coil protein motif (Publications)
To identify malaria antigens for vaccine development, we selected alpha-helical coiled coil domains of proteins predicted to be present in the parasite erythrocytic stage. The corresponding synthetic
The use of the polymerase chain reaction for more sensitive detection of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> (Publications)
The prevalence of Plasmodium falciparum in children and adults living in a malaria-endemic area in Papua New Guinea was determined by microscopy and by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The sensitivity
<em>Plasmodium falciparum</em>: malaria morbidity is associated with specific merozoite surface antigen 2 genotypes (Publications)
Plasmodium falciparum merozoite surface antigen 2 (MSA2) is considered a vaccine candidate in a subunit vaccine against blood stage malaria. In order to test if a specific genotype of the highly polym
