The biochemistry, immunology and molecular biology of parasites and bacteria of medical-veterinary significance in Southern Africa
Proteins of the malaria parasite are investigated as targets for the prevention/ treatment of infections by new therapeutic approaches. Research is done on the role of non-protein components of the membranes of tuberculosis and coryza bacteria in the protection against and diagnosis of the pathogens. Molecular biology approaches are used to establish the character and effects of components of tissue and salivary fluids of ticks on their hosts
