TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the phenomenon of drug resistant malaria infection in a hyperendemic region by a system of ordinary differential equations models and show that the equilibrium points are (locally) asymptotically stable.
Abstract: In this paper, we describe the phenomenon of drug resistant malaria infection in a hyperendemic region by a system of ordinary differential equations models. Different situations on both vectors and humans are described. The first presentations deal with single population each for both humans and vectors (with the human population fixed). These models are without resistant strains. The second group of models deal with both resistant and sensitive strains. Our focus in analysing the models is on establishing a unique positive asymptotic equilibrium for each of them. It is shown that (under suitable conditions in most cases) the equilibrium points are (locally) asymptotically stable. The biological significance of each of these points emerges as a by-product.

TL;DR: In this study, twelve fungal lipase producing strains belonging to Aspergillus, Penicillium, Trichoderma and Mucor genera were isolated from palm oil mill effluent composts.
Abstract: In this study, twelve fungal lipase producing strains belonging to Aspergillus, Penicillium, Trichoderma and Mucor genera were isolated from palm oil mill effluent composts. The Aspergillus spp. were more frequent (42%) and was present in all the samples assayed. Mucor sp. was the least encountered (8.3%).The lipase producing profile showed that Trichoderma (8.07-8.24 u/mL) and Aspergillus (6.25 -7.54 u/mL) spp. were the highest lipase producers while Mucor (5.72 u/mL) was the least.

TL;DR: The use of conventional vaginal formulations of miconazole nitrate (MN) in the treatment of deep-seated VVC (vulvovaginal candidiasis) is limited by poor penetration capacity and low solubility of MN, short residence time and irritation at the application site as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The following classification, based on the criteria outlined in the paper, is suggested: plants that have been included in many pharmacopoeias, and which belong to plant species known to contain particular substances on a chemotaxonomic basis.

TL;DR: The Niger Delta region is continuously exposed to a higher rate of oil spills, and the occupants of this region may be at risk of heavy metals toxicity, so effective strategies must be adopted to reduce oil spills.
Abstract: Background. Heavy metals are known to elicit toxic effects which negatively affect human health. Crude oil is known to contain heavy metals and oil spills contaminate the environment and can result...
