With the emergence of Plasmodium falciparum infections exhibiting increased parasite clearance times in response to treatment with artemisinin-based combination therapies, the need for new therapeutic
Imidazolopiperazines: hit to lead optimization of new antimalarial agents (Publications)
Starting from a hit series from a GNF compound library collection and based on a cell-based proliferation assay of Plasmodium falciparum, a novel imidazolopiperazine scaffold was optimized. SAR for th
Potential long-term toxicity of repeated orally administered doses of artemether in rats (Publications)

Novel <em>Bacteroides</em> host strains for detection of human- and animal-specific bacteriophages in water (Publications)
Bacteriophages active against specific Bacteroides host strains were shown to be suitable for detection of human faecal pollution. However, the practical application of this finding is limited because
Screening medicinal plants for the detection of novel antimalarial products applying the inhibition of beta-hematin formation (Publications)
The identification of novel scaffolds for the development of effective and safe treatments to fight malaria is urgently needed. One of the main opportunities is the discovery of new molecules from nat
