From: A multiplex assay for the sensitive detection and quantification of male and female Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes

Sex-specificity of the multiplex assay. Female-specific (a) and male-specific (b) transcripts are detected in high concentrations of gametocytes of the opposite sex (empty symbols). Mean Ct values ± 2SD for varying numbers of independent experiments: n = 3 and n = 9 for CCp4 in male and female gametocytes; n = 4 and n = 17 for PfMGET in female and male gametocytes, respectively. ND not detected. Lines represent fitted linear regression curves
