Fig. 8From: On the survival of 48 h Plasmodium vivax Aotus monkey-derived ex vivo cultures: the role of leucocytes filtration and chemically defined lipid concentrate media supplementationSelected light microscopic images of Giemsa-stained developmental stages of co-cultivated Aotus-derived Plasmodium vivax ex vivo cultures. Cultures were co-cultivated with Aotus or malaria-naïve hRBCs. a–e Images of 24-h ex vivo cultures co-cultivated with malaria-naive hRBCs supplemented with 25% sera showing early and late trophozoites. f–j Images of 48-h ex vivo cultured co-cultivated with malaria-naive hRBCs, showing rings, schizonts and bursted schizonts. k–o Images of 48-h ex vivo culture co-cultivated with malaria-naive Aotus RBCs only, showing rings, trophozoites and schizonts. * show early trophozoite (ring)Back to article page
