T cell population in the semi-immune mice strains. Mice were sacrificed and spleen removed on days 0, minimum Hb (Hm) [day 12 for CBA and day 16 for F1 and Balb/c], and when mice recovered (i.e. when parasitaemia is zero by microscopy), day 28 for F1 and Balb/c. Most CBA died by this time. T cell population were analysed using the flow cytometry. FACs analysis was done on pooled cells from the mice [F1 (5), Balb/c (5) and CBA (5), Negative control (3)] sacrificed in each experiment. The negative values (i.e. negative controls) were subtracted and values are presented for the positives. D0 day zero, Hm day minimum Hb observed, Rec day parasite not detected by microscopy, T cells pooled cells from the semi-immune mice and done in triplicates. Values presented are the mean of the triplicates. A representative result of the FACs analysis for i F1; ii Balb/c; iii CBA
