Effect of PfK13 mutation or iron supplementation on the reproduction of Plasmodium falciparum 3D7. A The workflow involved monitoring growth curves, conducting in vitro iron sucrose assays, and comparing hemozoin content. B Comparison of merozoites and their number between P. falciparum 3D7WT and P. falciparum 3D7C580Y. C Impact of iron supplementation on merozoites and their number in P. falciparum 3D7C580Y. D Effect of iron supplementation on the number of merozoites of P. falciparum 3D7WT and P. falciparum 3D7C580Y. E Comparison of hemozoin content between P. falciparum 3D7WT and P. falciparum 3D7C580Y. F Comparison of growth curves between P. falciparum 3D7WT and P. falciparum 3D7C580Y. G Flow-cytometry analysis showing the impact of desferrioxamine (DFO) on the growth and development of P. falciparum 3D7. ns No significant difference (P > 0.05), **P < 0.01, ****P < 0.0001 (t-test)
