Plasmodium vivax densities in serially diluted blood samples. Shown are the relationships between actual LM counts and calculated parasite densities based on the dilution factors for a total blood-stage parasites, b total gametocytes, c female gametocytes and d male gametocytes. For each plot, data from all 8 cases were combined. Only data with calculated densities above 3 per microliter were included. Trendlines represent the best linear fits with zero crossing on the log-log scale
