Relationship between Hb and parasitaemia in semi-immune mice strains. Mice were infected with 10⁴ P. berghei ANKA to generate semi-immune status in the mice strains. Hb was determined (see text for procedure) and parasitaemia every two days. Hb and parasitaemia were compared in the combined cycles (1–6) to examine the extent of their relationship. (a) Balb/c, n = 5 (b) B6, n = 6, (c) NZW, n = 6 (d) CBA, n = 6. Hb, haemoglobin. These are values of one experiment.
