Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The antimalarial activity of quinolone esters was investigated in this article, where the authors found that quinoline esters are antimalarials. But they did not consider the effect of the esters on the antimalariarial activity.
Abstract: (1970). The antimalarial activity of some quinolone esters. Annals of Tropical Medicine & Parasitology: Vol. 64, No. 2, pp. 209-222.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the isolation of the Kunjin virus from mosquitoes of the Culex pseudovishnui group was studied in Sarawak, and the results showed that the virus was resistant to insecticides.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, Inflammatory changes in small blood vessels induced by kallikrein (kininogenase) in the blood of Macaca mulatta, infected with Plasmodium knowlesi, were reported.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, observations on some factors affecting the growth rate and fecundity of Biomphalaria glabrata (Say) are given. But the authors do not discuss the effects of these factors on the overall growth rate of the species.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: A description is given of the complete life cycle of P. vinckei lentum subsp.
Abstract: In 1966 Adam, Landau and Chabaud discovered two malaria parasites in the forest rodent TJza~~znomys rutilam7 captured in the Congo (Brazzaville). From their morphology in the blood the parasites were identified as Plasmodium berghei Vincke and Lips, 1948, and P. vinckei Rodhain, 19.52, but, since their complete life-cycles were not then known, it was not possible to determine their subspecific status and relationships to similar parasites from other parts of Africa. In later work, the berghei-like parasite was found to be easily transmitted cyclically in the laboratory, and the sporogony and tissue schizogony of this subspecies, P. berghei killicki, have been described elsewhere (Landau, Michel and Adam, 1968). In contrast, stages of the life-cycle of the viizckei-like parasite were less easily obtained, and attempts were made using many new isolates before the best methods of cyclically passaging this subspecies in the laboratory were determined. In the present paper, a description is given of the complete life cycle of P. vinckei lentum subsp. nov., from Brazzaville, and the nomenclature of the murine malaria parasites is discussed.
