Figure 1From: Effect of the haematocrit layer geometry on Plasmodium falciparum static thin-layer in vitro culturesDifferent observed shapes of the haematocrit layer. A) Glass culturing devices produce a convex meniscus. A1: flat bottomed bottles used in the B series. A2: Petri dishes with glass separators used in the P series. B) Plastic culturing devices produce a concave meniscus, as can be observed in the 6-well plates used in the W series.Back to article page
