Drug Screening for Kinetoplastid Diseases: A Training Manual for Screening in Neglected Diseases

Abstract

The production of this research manual is one of the deliverables of the Pan-Asian Network for Drugs for Neglected Diseases from Natural Substances. This comprehensive manual is a practical and user-friendly guide for assays available to screen natural products against pathogens responsible for some of the neglected diseases, such as African trypanosomiaisis and Leishmanaisis. It provides recommendations and protocols related to these assays, describes the principles of good scientific practice, and lists information about materials required for the assays, as well as key resources (databases, journals, institutions) and references.
