The search for new antimalarial agents is at the forefront for the global fight against antimalarial drug resistance as malaria treatments take longer than the three days plan. These changes pose a threat to the progress made thus far and search for newer and more rapid antimalarial agents is needed to maintain that success. The potentials of Magnesium Oxide Nanoparticles (MgO NPs) enhanced Chloroquine were assessed on vivo. Magnesium Oxide Nanoparticles were synthesized using sol characterized using TEM (transmission electron microscope) and EDS (energy dispersive x spectroscope), SEM, UV-VIS and FTIR. Concentration of 10 mg/ml of MgO NPs were prepared and combined with graded doses of chloroquine (25mg, 12.5mg and 6.25mg per kg) and assayed on Plasmodium berghei Department Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital (AKTH) and weighed before the start of the experiment. Plasmodium berghei mice from a donor. The mice were grouped into five A, B, C, D and E consist Group A-no treatment, Group B NPs and 25mg chloroquine and Group D were treated with 10mg/ml MgO NPs and 12.5mg chloroquine and group E-10mg/ml MgO NPs and 6.25mg of chloroquin TEM shows that the particles are all under 100nm cylindrical and spherical in shape. EDS shows that the sample contains magnesium and oxygen in the ratio of 2:1. In plasmodial activity shows that all the groups that were had better parasite clearance rate (F all counts chloroquine enhanced with MgO NPs is considered to be more effective. The T shows that there is statisticall will inform malaria agencies of the potentials of this promising agent in the treatment of Plasmodium infection and further studies be carried out on the said compound.
The short term in-vitro growth of plasmodium falciparum in asexual erythrocyte stage and the in-vitro activities of fourteen different standard artemisinin drugs bought in duplicates were assessed and compared using the Roswell park memorial institute media ( RPMI 1640) medium supplemented with 10% rabbit serum. The test shows that about 80% 0f the drugs were active in significant difference was observed in terms of antiplasmodial activities between the open market brands and the brands bought from the pharmacy the drugs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
