Journal ArticleDOI

Human malaria parasites in continuous culture

TL;DR: Plasmodium falciparum can now be maintained in continuous culture in human erythrocytes incubated at 38 degrees C in RPMI 1640 medium with human serum under an atmosphere with 7 percent carbon dioxide and low oxygen.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasmodium falciparum in culture: use of outdated erthrocytes and description of the candle jar method.

TL;DR: Full details of the petri dish method and its application in demonstrating the feasibility of using outdated erythrocytes and for testing certain other modifications of the culture conditions are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fine structure of human malaria in vitro.

TL;DR: The erythrocytic cycle of the human malaria parasite, Plasmodium, falciparum, was examined by electron microscopy and the time of appearance of knobs on cells in vitro correlates with the life cycle stage of parasites which are sequestered from the peripheral circulation in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Concentration from continuous culture of erythrocytes infected with trophozoites and schizonts of Plasmodium falciparum.

TL;DR: Gelatin, from readily available sources, at specified concentrations in RPMI 1640 medium enhances sedimentation rates of suspensions of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes from continuous cultures, resulting in an enrichment of the trophozoite- and schizont- infected cells to parasitemias of 75% or more with no deleterious effects to the parasites.
