Purpose: The temporal and spatial formation of the temperature field and its changes during/upon water-filtered infrared-A (wIRA)-irradiation in porcine skin and subcutis were investigated in vivo in
Antimalarial pantothenamide metabolites target acetyl-coenzyme A biosynthesis in <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> (Publications)
Malaria eradication is critically dependent on new therapeutics that target resistant Plasmodium parasites and block transmission of the disease. Here, we report that pantothenamide bioisosteres were
Eave ribbons treated with transfluthrin can protect both users and non-users against malaria vectors (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Eave ribbons treated with spatial repellents effectively prevent human exposure to outdoor-biting and indoor-biting malaria mosquitoes, and could constitute a scalable and low-cost supplem
