Reduction of active disease by preventive therapy has the potential to make an important contribution towards the goal of tuberculosis (TB) elimination. This report summarises discussions amongst a Working Group convened to consider areas of research that ...
In Switzerland, a new standard for wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) – 80% reduction of micropollutants from raw sewage – is under consideration. Five substances have been proposed as target compounds: Diclofenac, Carbamazepine, Mecoprop, Sulfamethoxazole ...
In this paper, we present pilot-scale solar Photo-Fenton and TiO2 treatment of a model compound (α-methylphenylglycine) dissolved in 500 mg/l concentration in water. Not only contaminant disappearance and mineralisation were evaluated, but also enhancement ...
The cellular uptake and subcellular distribution including adduct formation with genomic DNA and uptake into mitochondria of two ruthenium(III)-based drugs in clinical trials, KP1019 and NAMI-A, and cisplatin, was investigated in cisplatin sensitive and re ...
The inactivation of coliphage MS2 by iron- and copper-catalyzed Fenton systems was studied to assess the importance of this process for virus inactivation in natural systems and during water treatment by advanced oxidation processes. The influence of H2O2 ...
A wide variety of antibacterial compounds is rapidly oxidized by O-3 and hydroxyl radical ((OH)-O-center dot) during aqueous ozonation. Quantitative microbiological assays have been developed here or adapted from existing methods and utilized to measure th ...
The potential of ferrate (Fe(VI)) oxidation to remove N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) precursors during water treatment was assessed. Apparent second-order rate constants (k(app)) for the reactions of NDMA and its suspected precursors (dimethylamine (DMA) an ...
Availability of an ultra-short-course drug regimen capable of curing patients with tuberculosis in 2 to 3 mo would significantly improve global control efforts. Because immediate prospects for novel treatment-shortening drugs remain uncertain, we examined ...
Exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness in elderly people in the western world. Recent developments in the field yielded vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) targeted strategies that caused a revolution in th ...
The present invention relates to new 2-piperazin-1-yl-4H-1,3-benzothiazin- 4-one derivatives and their use for the treatment of mammalian infections caused by bacteria, especially diseases like tuberculosis (TB), Buruli ulcer and leprosy that result from i ...
