M2ANET: Mobile Malaria Attention Network for efficient classification of plasmodium parasites in blood cells [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Malaria is a life-threatening infectious disease caused by Plasmodium parasites, which poses a significant public health challenge worldwide, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions. Timely and accurate detection of malaria parasites in blood cells is crucial for effective treatment and control of the disease.

Using runs of homozygosity to detect genomic regions associated with susceptibility to infectious and metabolic diseases in dairy cows under intensive farming conditions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Runs of homozygosity (ROH) are contiguous stretches of homozygous genome which likely reflect transmission from common ances- tors and can be used to track the inheritance of haplotypes of interest. In the present paper, ROH were extracted from 50K SNPs and used to detect regions of the genome associated with susceptibility to diseases in a population ...

Glycans and Chirality: Stereoselectivity at the Core of DC‐SIGN's Recognition. A Novel View of the Optimum Minimal Ligand Epitope

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The stereochemical diversity of the “glycan code” enables similar chiral motifs to arise from both D‐ and L‐sugars. Focused on DC‐SIGN–glycan recognition, two diverse monosaccharide scaffolds, D‐Man (D‐Rha) and L‐Gal (L‐Fuc), maintain the exquisite stereochemistry encoded in the minimal binding epitope.

Antiprotozoal activity of highly substituted pyrazole and pyrimidine derivates

open access: yesChemMedChem, Accepted Article.
To further extend the structure‐activity relationships of previously reported antimalarial anilino‐pyrazoles VI, trisubstituted pyrazoles 13‐15 and pyrimidines 16 and 17 were designed and synthesized. The novel derivatives were prepared thorough a divergent, chemo‐selective approach starting from N,S‐acetal intermediates.

Predicting and controlling the dynamics of infectious diseases [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
This paper introduces a new optimal control model to describe and control the dynamics of infectious diseases. In the present model, the average time of isolation (i.e. hospitalization) of infectious population is the main time-dependent parameter that defines the spread of infection.

Rethinking Chlorine: Essential Chemical or Replaceable Risk?

open access: yesChemSusChem, EarlyView.
Chlorine is essential for the production of plastics and pharmaceuticals but poses significant safety and environmental risks. Herein, processes are presented that substitute chlorine or reduce its demand. Where indispensable, trichloride‐ and bichloride‐based ionic liquids could enhance safety and streamline the integration of renewable energy ...

A coupled hidden Markov model for disease interactions [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series C, 62 (2013), 2012
To investigate interactions between parasite species in a host, a population of field voles was studied longitudinally, with presence or absence of six different parasites measured repeatedly. Although trapping sessions were regular, a different set of voles was caught at each session leading to incomplete profiles for all subjects.

Electrochemical sensing strategies for on‐site testing of pathogenic nucleic acids

open access: yesElectrochemical Science Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Rapid and reliable on‐site pathogen testing is crucial for diagnosing and managing human health. Nucleic acids (NAs) containing genetic information are valuable target molecules for pathogen testing, and sensitive and rapid detection of NAs using electrochemical approaches has been intensively investigated.

From waste to resource: Garlic peel‐derived proteases (Allium sativum) for nematode control

open access: yesEnvironmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract This study aimed to prepare a protease‐rich extract from garlic peel (Allium sativum) and evaluate its nematicidal potential. The garlic peel was crushed, suspended in distilled water, and the obtained extract was subjected to filtration, centrifugation, and dialysis to concentrate the proteases. The nematicidal activity was tested in vitro on
