Results of ICT for Pv infected blood samples.

Microscopy		Intensity of T2 band*
Pv density (pRBC/µl)	No.	0	1	2	3
0–100	1	1	—	—	—
100–1000	10	1	3	6	—
1000–10000	19	—	—	14	5
10000–	20	—	—	4	16

Results were classified according to the level of parasite density determined by microscopy.

*0 = negative; 1 = weak; 2 = moderate and 3 = strong

—: No samples.
