Fig. 2From: Characterization and optimization of the haemozoin-like crystal (HLC) assay to determine Hz inhibiting effects of anti-malarial compoundsSEM images of haemozoin and different types of haemozoin-like crystals. Top row a Synthetic haemozoin, b natural haemozoin purified from P. falciparum culture (3D7), and c haemozoin-like crystals. Bottom row d HLC growth without serum, e HLC growth with haemin instead of lysed blood, and f HLC with sHz instead of HLC as initial seeding. See text for description of methodsBack to article page
