Figure 7From: Neutral lipids associated with haemozoin mediate efficient and rapid β-haematin formation at physiological pH, temperature and ionic compositionFTIR spectra of dried product obtained as Nujol mulls. Products were those formed using NLB (thick line) or MPG (thin line) and show characteristic β-haematin peaks at 1662 cm-1 and 1210 cm-1 (arrows). Both products gave an identical infrared spectrum. Nujol peaks (★) and contaminating lipid peaks (*) are marked. Reaction conditions: 2.15 L/H ratio (64.3 μM total lipid), citric buffer (50 mM, pH 4.8), 37°C, 10 min incubation.Back to article page
