The resistance of conventional antimalarial drugs against the malarial parasite continues to
pose a challenge to control the disease. The indiscriminate exploitation of the available …

The protozoan parasite Cryptosporidium is an important cause of diarrheal disease
(cryptosporidiosis) in humans and animals, with significant morbidity and mortality especially …

The development of multi-resistant strains of plasmodium parasite has become a global
problem, therefore, the discovery of new antimalarial agents is the only available solution. In …

Malaria persists as the most infectious vector-borne disease in the world. The inhibition of
the mitochondrial respiratory chain enzyme cytochrome bc1 has become the major focus as …

Resistance to folate antagonists is caused by mutations in the dihydrofolate reductase
(DHFR) genes. These mutations affect the amino acids at positions 51, 59, 108 and 164 of …

Background Investigating malaria transmission dynamics is essential to inform policy
decision making. Whether multiplicity of infection (MOI) dynamic from individual infections …

Routine sampling of pregnant women at first antenatal care (ANC) visits could make
Plasmodium falciparum genomic surveillance more cost-efficient and convenient in sub …

Multiplicity of infection (MOI) and genetic diversity of P. falciparum infections are important
surrogate indicators for assessing malaria transmission intensity in different regions of …

Background Malaria is a major public health problem in Cameroon. The study of the genetic
diversity within parasite population is essential for understanding the mechanism underlying …
