Figure 3From: Development of fluorescent Plasmodium falciparum for in vitro growth inhibition assaysOptimisation of growth inhibition assays. Comparison of one and two cycle parasite growth inhibition assays using the 3D7 AMA1 (1F9) monoclonal antibody (0.5 mg/ml), PfMSP1-19 rabbit antiserum (1 in 10 dilution) and PcMSP1-19 rabbit antiserum (1 in 10 dilution) for (A) the PcMSP1-19 parasite line and (B) the PfMSP1-19 parasite line. Comparison of parasite growth inhibition by samples tested at either 1 in 10 or 1 in 20 dilution in a one cycle growth assay for (C) the PcMSP1-19 and (D) the PfMSP1-19 parasite lines. Growth is expressed as a percentage of controls (sera from non-exposed Australian residents). The mean of duplicate or multiple values is shown and error bars represent the range when tested in duplicate or standard error of the mean for 4 or more values as appropriate.Back to article page
