Figure 1From: Allicin enhances host pro-inflammatory immune responses and protects against acute murine malaria infectionEffects of allicin treatment on parasitaemia and survival of P. yoelii 17XL infected mice. Mice were treated with two doses of allicin (3 and 9 mg/kg) and PBS (control group) for successive three days after P. yoelii 17 XL infection. Parasitaemia was calculated by counting the number of parasite-infected erythrocytes per 1,000 erythrocytes. Mortality was monitored daily. Results are presented as arithmetic mean of three mice per group ± the standard error of the mean (SEM). ##, significant difference (P < 0.001) compared to the control group.Back to article page
