Decreased intensity of P. vivax oocysts in four species of Anopheles mosquitoes
Treatment | An. stephensi | An. freeborni | An. albimanus | An. farauti |
---|---|---|---|---|
Chimpanzee serum | 149 ± 7.8 | 20.4 ± 38.3 | 89.9 ± 36.5 | 62.8 ± 9.5 |
(11) | (11) | (9) | (28) | |
mAb IB11 | 30.5 ± 3.3* | 12.9 ± 4.6 | 11 ± 5 | 4.2 ± 1.6* |
(11) | (12) | (11) | (24) | |
MG25E | 5.2 ± 1.2** | 1.3 ± 0.3 | 6.5 ± 3.5* | 2.1 ± 1* |

Oocyst intensity is expressed as geometric mean ± SEM (number of mosquitoes examined). Statistical comparisons were made among all treatments. Treatments that have a single asterisk are significantly different from the chimpanzee serum control at the 0.05 level of significance. Treatments with double asterisks are significantly different from both the chimpanzee serum control and the mAb IB11 groups at the 0.05 level of significance.
