Spread of anti-malarial drug resistance: mathematical model with implications for ACT drug policies. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Most malaria-endemic countries are implementing a change in anti-malarial drug policy to artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT). The impact of different drug choices and implementation strategies is uncertain.

Rapid microarray-based method for monitoring of all currently known single-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with parasite resistance to antimalaria drugs. [PDF]
Parasite drug resistance is partly conferred by single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and monitoring them has been proposed as an alternative to monitoring drug resistance.

Hsp90 governs dispersion and drug resistance of fungal biofilms [PDF]
Fungal biofilms are a major cause of human mortality and are recalcitrant to most treatments due to intrinsic drug resistance. These complex communities of multiple cell types form on indwelling medical devices and their eradication often requires ...

Drug coverage in treatment of malaria and the consequences for resistance evolution--evidence from the use of sulphadoxine/pyrimethamine. [PDF]
BACKGROUND\ud \ud It is argued that, the efficacy of anti-malarials could be prolonged through policy-mediated reductions in drug pressure, but gathering evidence of the relationship between policy, treatment practice, drug pressure and the evolution of ...

Molecular monitoring of HIV-1 drug resistance in Ifakara HIV-1 Cohort, Tanzania [PDF]
HIV-1 resistance is one of the problems affecting success of antiretroviral therapy programmes worldwide. Many studies on efficacy of ART programmes, specifically on drug resistance, have been conducted in developed countries but not in developing ...
