Parasitemia of 0.05% indicates that a total of one or two parasites were seen in the 50 high-power light microscopy fields of a blood smear.
ImF, immunofluorescence for pRBCs.
ELISA titration on P30P2MSP-119; titers giving an OD of 1, which is on the linear part of the titration curve.
Secondary processing assay: −, no detectable processing inhibition; +/−, just-detectable inhibition; +, significant inhibition; ++, strong inhibition; +++, apparently complete inhibition.
Monkey 2582 died on day 20 due to heart seizure (not malaria related).
TBV, TBV25H (see Materials and Methods).
