Antiparasitic Agents from Plants
1992Parasites are generally grouped into one of three broad classes: protozoa (single-celled organisms), helminths (including nematodes, trematodes, and cestodes), and ectoparasites. Parasitic diseases inflict tremendous damage and suffering to plants, animals, and humans.

Parasitic diseases predominantly affect the developing world because of poor sanitation, poor living conditions, and lack of medical care. The relative insulation of the developed countries has been protective until recently, when several factors have made populations worldwide potentially at risk of infection by any transmissible agent.

Chapter 17. Antiparasitic Agents
1991Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the anthelmintic and ectoparasiticidal agents. Chemotherapy for endo- and ectoparasitic infections has been dominated by the use of the avermectins and the closely related milbemycins. These compounds have found widespread use in veterinary health and limited utility in human health.

Chapter 15. Antiparasitic Agents
1973Publisher Summary This chapter discusses studies that focus on antiparasitic agents. A model in vitro system for testing susceptibility of human parasites to antimalarial drugs was proposed. Structure–activity correlations for 2-phenylquinoline-4-carbinol antimalarials were obtained by the Free-Wilson method.

[Innovation in antiparasitic agents].
Annales de parasitologie humaine et comparee, 1992The emergence of new parasitic diseases has encouraged studies on the elucidation of the mode of action of new and old antiparasitic drugs, and has led to the development of new chemical series. Resistance occurs rapidly when a single drug is used massively in human and animals.
