Fig. 3From: Dynamics of Plasmodium falciparum gametocyte carriage in pregnant women under intermittent preventive treatment with sulfadoxine–pyrimethamine in BeninRatio of male/female gametocyte transcript levels at inclusion and delivery in infected pregnant women in Benin. TU transcript unit: low abundant transcript with ΔCT values > 5 are assigned to ΔCT = 5. For the corresponding samples, TU = 1 (Lavstsen et al. [32]). For the TU values, logarithmic scale base 10 is usedBack to article page
