ChemBioChem, Volume 23, Issue 23, December 5, 2022., 2022 Fifteen new dinuclear arene‐ruthenium (II)‐BODIPY conjugates were synthesized. Despite a fluorescence quenching effect, these conjugates can be used as fluorescent tracers. Their antiparasitic activity but also their toxicity against healthy human foreskin fibroblasts (HFFs) was reduced compared to the parent ruthenium compounds.

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 400-404, January 2023., 2023 Toxoplasma gondii is a food‐borne zoonotic parasite that infects humans. The results demonstrate the presence of the DNA of T. gondii in buffalo, cow and camel's milk. Consumption of raw milk of different animals can be a risk factor for human health. To prevent infection with T. gondii, it is recommended to boil milk before consumption.
