Figure 1

Infection with sporozoites under chloroquine cover induces long lasting protection. Infection with sporozoites under CQ cover induces long lasting protection. Three groups of ten mice each were inoculated three times, two weeks apart with 20,000 Spz. Each group of animals was challenged once with 1,000 sporozoites-at week 4, 8, 12 and 16 post the last inoculation as shown. For each group five naïve mice were used as infectivity controls. Appearance of parasitaemia was followed by Giemsa staining of blood smears.
