The inhibition of M-MLV and HIV-1 reverse transcriptase by polyphenols extracted from the resurrection plant Myrothamnus flabellifolia (Welw.)
Includes abstract. === Includes bibliographical references (leaves 80-90). === Polyphenols have been shown to exhibit anti-viral activity in vitro, making them a promising starting point for the development of HIV treatment drugs. The main objective of this thesis was to assess the inhibitory effect...
