Malaria is a parasitic disease with limited chemotherapy options. Chemotherapy options are limited; moreover, drug resistant frequently occurs. The speed of drug development should be faster to overcome the emerging drug resistance. In the current study, a series of quinolone derivatives were subjected to quantitative structure activity relationship to identify the ideal physicochemical charact...

The facultative pathogen Vibrio cholerae transitions between its human host and aquatic reservoirs where it colonizes chitinous surfaces. Growth on chitin induces expression of chitin utilization genes, genes involved in DNA uptake by natural transformation, and a type VI secretion system that allows contact-dependent killing of neighboring bacteria. We have previously shown that the transcript...

QSAR/QSTR modelling constitutes an attractive approach to preliminary assessment of the impact on environmental health by a primary pollutant and the suite of transformation products that may be persistent in and toxic to the environment. The present paper studies the impact on environmental health by residuals of the rocket fuel 1,1-dimethyl hydrazine (heptyl) and its transformation products. ...
