Expression and purification of E140 protein antigen fragments of Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium berghei for serological assays

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We provide a step‐by‐step guide for producing E140 antigen fragments from Plasmodium berghei (Pb1) and Plasmodium vivax (Pv1). Pb1/Pv1 are expressed in E. coli, solubilized by freeze–thawing, refolded by slow dilution, purified by affinity chromatography (IMAC), then concentrated and subjected to quality control.

IL‐4/IL‐13‐producing ILC2s are required for timely control of intestinal helminth infection in mice

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 52, Issue 12, Page 1925-1933, December 2022., 2022
ILC2‐derived IL‐4/IL‐13 plays a non‐redundant role for eosinophil recruitment to the lung and expulsion of N. brasiliensis worm parasites from the intestine. Abstract Infection of mice with Nippostrongylus brasiliensis (Nb) serves as a model for human hookworm infection affecting about 600 million people world‐wide.

Network-thinking to optimize surveillance and control of crop parasites. A review [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Increasing cultivated lands, crop homogenization and global food trade have fostered the spread of crop pests and diseases. Optimizing crop protection is urgently needed to ensure food safety. One aspect of crop protection is surveillance, which focuses on the early detection of a parasite, and control, aiming to fight and possibly eradicate it ...

Extracellular vesicles in infectious diseases caused by protozoan parasites in buffaloes [PDF]

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2020
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small membrane-bound vesicles of growing interest in vetetinary parasitology. The aim of the present report was to provide the first isolation, quantification and protein characterization of EVs from buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) sera infected with Theileria spp.Infected animals were identified through optical microscopy ...

Characterization of the infectious reservoir of malaria with an agent-based model calibrated to age-stratified parasite densities and infectiousness [PDF]

Malaria Journal 2015, 14:231, 2015
Background Elimination of malaria can only be achieved through removal of all vectors or complete depletion of the infectious reservoir in humans. Mechanistic models can be built to synthesize diverse observations from the field collected under a variety of conditions and subsequently used to query the infectious reservoir in great detail.

Ultrathin Gold for Robust Multi‐Element Surface Plasmon Resonance Biosensing

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This is a pioneering work where for the first time we applied recently synthesised ultrathin layer of gold for plasmonic biosensing that makes use of multi‐element architectures. This study solves the problem of stability of the multi‐element biosensors as well as demonstrates increased sensitivity achieved by utilising new additions to low‐dimension ...

Epidemic trend analysis of SARS‐CoV‐2 in South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation countries using modified susceptible‐infected‐recovered predictive model

Engineering Reports, Volume 5, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
An short‐mid‐long term prediction model has been designed to understand the early dynamics of the COVID‐19 epidemic in the southeast Asian region. Based on the proposed prediction model we estimated the epidemic trend of COVID‐19 outbreak in SAARC countries for 20 days (short term), 90 days (mid‐term), and 180 days (long term), respectively.
