Effect of anti-PfMSP1p19 depletion on ADRB activity against P. falciparum merozoites. A set of 21 sera were depleted from anti-PfMSP1p19 antibodies using metal affinity immuno-adsorbent. a The ADRB level of each serum pair (undepleted and depleted, black and light bars, respectively) was plotted in increasing order of ADRB level of undepleted sera. b Boxplot graph showing the significant (P < 10−3) overall drop of ADRB from initial vs depleted sera. All sera selected had initial high levels of anti-PfMSP1p19 antibodies. The median is indicated by a line, the 50 % percentiles indicated by the box limits and the upper and lower 25 % by whiskers
