Artemisinin vs. DDT

Artemisinin and its semi-synthetic derivatives are a group of drugs used against Plasmodium falciparum malaria. Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane, commonly known as DDT, is a colorless, tasteless, and almost odorless crystalline chemical compound, an organochlorine, originally developed as an insecticide, and ultimately becoming infamous for its environmental impacts.
