The Molecular Properties of Honey Bee Acetylcholinesterase Reveal Opportunities to Avoid Off‐Target Effects in Insecticide Discovery

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The structure, dynamics, and kinetics of the essential enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE) of honey bee have been studied and compared to AChEs in mosquitoes and mammalians. Profiling of the active sites with selected substrates and AChE inhibitors revealed dramatic differences between the species.

Treatment of severe malaria.

Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, 1989
In the treatment of severe Plasmodium falciparum infection antimalarial drugs should, ideally, be given by controlled rate intravenous infusion until the patient is able to swallow tablets. In cases where infection has been acquired in a chloroquine resistant area, and where it has broken through chloroquine prophylaxis or where the geographical origin
