Prioritised identification of structural classes of natural products from higher plants in the expedition of antimalarial drug discovery
(Natural Products and Bioprospecting, 2023)The emergence and spread of drug-recalcitrant Plasmodium falciparum parasites threaten to reverse the gains made in the fight against malaria. Urgent measures need to be taken to curb this impending challenge. The ... -
Leveraging off higher plant phylogenetic insights for antiplasmodial drug discovery
(Natural Products and Bioprospecting, 2023)The antimalarial drug-resistance conundrum which threatens to reverse the great strides taken to curb the malaria scourge warrants an urgent need to find novel chemical scaffolds to serve as templates for the development ... -
Kojic acid derived hydroxypyridinone–chloroquine hybrids: Synthesis, crystal structure, antiplasmodial activity and b-haematin inhibition
(Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2014)Aminochloroquinoline–kojic acid hybrids were synthesized and evaluated for b-haematin inhibition and antiplasmodial activity against drug resistant (K1) and sensitive (3D7) strains of Plasmodium falciparum. Compound 7j ... -
Discovery and Development of Antimalarial DrugResistance Reversal Agents
(Frontiers in Anti-Infective Drug Discovery, 2023): Despite the meritorious measures taken to curb the malaria scourge in the last two decades, the drug-resistance phenomenon threatens to reverse the gains made. Evidence of partial resistance against the first-line ... -
Development of a Traceability Model for Geographical Origin of Kenya’s Black Teas Based on Principal Component Analysis of FTIR and UV-Vis Spectral Data
(International Journal of research and innovation in applied science, 2025)Authentic tracing of the origins of black tea is important in the tea market as this helps to extrapolate the quality and thus prices. Tasting on its own can be a misleading test for tea quality and origin tracing since ... -
Analysis of Pesticide Residues in Tomatoes and French Beans from Murang’a and Kiambu Counties, Kenya
(European Journal of Nutrition & Food Safety, 2020)Poor Pesticide-handling practices during production of tomatoes and French beans pose adverse health and environmental effects. This study was conducted to determine the concentrations of pesticide residues in tomatoes ... -
Heavy Metal Concentration Levels In Surface Waters Of Lake Turkana And River Turkwel, Kenya
(IOSR Journal Of Applied Physics, 2025)Heavy metal contamination in surface waters is a significant global concern, particularly because people often settle near accessible water sources like lakes. This study examined the concentrations of heavy metals in ... -
Heavy Metal Concentration Levels in Some Selected Fish from Lake Turkana, Kenya
(International Journal of Research and Analytical Reviews, 2025)Heavy metal pollution in water poses a risk to both drinking water and fish consumed by people. This study aimed to assess how various heavy metals are distributed among different fish species. The study measured the ... -
