Programmable reconfiguration of Physarum machines [PDF]

Natural Computing Volume 9, 2009, Number 1, 219-23, 2009
Plasmodium of Physarum polycephalum is a large cell capable of solving graph-theoretic, optimization and computational geometry problems due to its unique foraging behavior. Also the plasmodium is unique biological substrate that mimics universal storage modification machines, namely the Kolmogorov-Uspensky machine.

The Diagnostic Performance of a Sysmex XN‐31 Automated Malaria Analyzer vs. Expert Microscopy

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Malaria is a common and life‐threatening infection. Malaria diagnosis needs to be fast and reliable. Although malaria microscopy is currently the gold standard, it is laborious, requires extensive training, and relies heavily on the proficiency of microscopists.

Improved genetic screening with zygosity detection through multiplex high‐resolution melting curve analysis and biochemical characterisation for G6PD deficiency

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
Abstract Accurate diagnosis of glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is crucial for relapse malaria treatment using 8‐aminoquinolines (primaquine and tafenoquine), which can trigger haemolytic anaemia in G6PD‐deficient individuals. This is particularly important in regions where the prevalence of G6PD deficiency exceeds 3%–5%, including ...

Towards Physarum Binary Adders [PDF]

Biosystems Volume 101, Issue 1, July 2010, Pages 51-58, 2010
Plasmodium of \emph{Physarum polycephalum} is a single cell visible by unaided eye. The plasmodium's foraging behaviour is interpreted in terms of computation. Input data is a configuration of nutrients, result of computation is a network of plasmodium's cytoplasmic tubes spanning sources of nutrients.

A Brief Molecular History of Vγ9Vδ2 TCR‐Mediated Phosphoantigen Sensing

Immunological Reviews, Volume 331, Issue 1, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Vγ9Vδ2 T‐cells are universally present in humans and represent one of the most prevalent TCR reactivities, evolutionarily conserved across diverse mammalian species. They are an innate‐like subset featuring a semi‐invariant TCR repertoire that drives their well‐recognized reactivity to small, non‐peptidic phosphoantigens (pAg). Crucially, they

Measuring ex vivo drug susceptibility in Plasmodium vivax isolates from Cambodia

Malaria Journal, 2017
Background While intensive Plasmodium falciparum multidrug resistance surveillance continues in Cambodia, relatively little is known about Plasmodium vivax drug resistance in Cambodia or elsewhere. To investigate P.

Escherichia coli in the production of biopharmaceuticals

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, Volume 72, Issue 2, Page 528-541, April 2025.
Abstract Escherichia coli has shouldered a massive workload with the discovery of recombinant DNA technology. A new era began in the biopharmaceutical industry with the production of insulin, the first recombinant protein, in E. coli and its use in treating diabetes. After insulin, many biopharmaceuticals produced from E. coli have been approved by the

PLASMODIUM VIVAX BLOOD-STAGE DYNAMICS [PDF]

Journal of Parasitology, 2002
We examine the dynamics of parasitemia and gametocytemia reflected in the preintervention charts of 221 malaria-naive U.S. neurosyphilis patients infected with the St. Elizabeth strain of Plasmodium vivax, for malariatherapy, focusing on the 109 charts for which 15 or more days of patency preceded intervention and daily records encompassed an average ...

A Silicon Rhodamine‐fused Glibenclamide to Label and Detect Malaria‐infected Red Blood Cells

ChemBioChem, Volume 26, Issue 7, April 1, 2025.
A far‐red fluorescent silicon rhodamine‐conjugated glibenclamide (SiR‐glib) is synthesized. Labeling experiments in cells reveal the endoplasmic reticulum as the primary target of SiR‐glib, and is applicable to detect malaria‐infected red blood cells.
