Evaluation of two long synthetic merozoite surface protein 2 peptides as malaria vaccine candidates (Publications)
Merozoite surface protein 2 (MSP2) is a promising vaccine candidate against Plasmodium falciparum blood stages. A recombinant 3D7 form of MSP2 was a subunit of Combination B, a blood stage vaccine tes
Antiplasmodial and antitrypanosomal activity of bicyclic amides and esters of dialkylamino acids (Publications)
Several bicyclic amides and esters of dialkylamino acids were prepared. Their activities against a multiresistant strain of Plasmodium falciparum and against Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense (STIB 900)
Local determinants of road traffic noise levels versus determinants of air pollution levels in a Mediterranean city (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Both traffic-related noise and air pollution have been associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD). Spatial correlations between these environmental stressors may entail mutual confoundin
The practical importance of permanent and semipermanent habitats for controlling aquatic stages of <em>Anopheles gambiae</em> <em>sensu lato</em>... (Publications)
Summary Control of aquatic-stage Anopheles is one of the oldest and most historically successful interventions to prevent malaria, but it has seen little application in Africa. Consequently, the ecolo
Dialkylaminoalkyl derivatives of bicyclic compounds with antiplasmodial activity (Publications)
Dialkylaminoalkyl derivatives of 2-azabicyclo[3.2.2]nonanes and of bicyclo[2.2.2]octanes were prepared and their activities determined in vitro against the multiresistant K(1) strain of Plasmodium fal
Contacts between poultry farms, their spatial dimension and their relevance for avian influenza preparedness (Publications)
Ongoing economic losses by and exposure of humans to highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) in poultry flocks across Asia and parts of Africa and Europe motivate also outbreak-free countries such as
