Diversity at pathogen genetic loci can be driven by host adaptive immune selection pressure
and may reveal proteins important for parasite biology. Population-based genome …

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) nanotags functionalized with lectins as the
biological recognition element can be used to target the carbohydrate portion of …

Antibody immunity against malaria is effective but non-sterile. In addition to antibody-
mediated inhibition, neutralisation or opsonisation of malaria parasites, antibody-mediated …

Rising prevalence of diabetes in sub-Saharan Africa, coupled with continued malaria
transmission, has resulted more patients dealing with both communicable and non …

The tropical disease malaria remains a major cause of global morbidity. Once transmitted to
the human by a blood-feeding mosquito, the unicellular malaria parasite comes into contact …

P. falciparum erythrocyte membrane p rotein 1 (PfEMP1) is the major parasite protein
responsible for rosetting by binding to host receptors such as heparan sulfate, CR1 on RBC …

This study investigated adsorption selectivity of immunoglobulin M (IgM), immunoglobulin A
(IgA) and immunoglobulin (IgG) on four mixed-mode resins with the functional ligands of 4 …

During inflammatory responses, neutrophils enter the sites of attack where they execute
various defense mechanisms. They (I) phagocytose microorganisms,(II) degranulate to …

A totally effective, antimalarial vaccine must involve sporozoite and merozoite proteins (or
their fragments) to ensure complete parasite blocking during critical invasion stages. This …

Blood cells can be sorted in microfluidic devices not only based on their sizes and
deformability, but also based on their adhesive properties. In particular, white blood cells …
