Kinetics of the invasion and egress processes of Babesia divergens, observed by time-lapse video microscopy

Abstract Based on confocal fluorescence and bright field video microscopy, we present detailed observations on the processes of invasion and egress of erythrocytes by the apicomplexan parasite Babesia divergens. Time-lapse images reveal numerous unexpected findings associated with the dynamics of B....
