Flow Cytometric Enumeration of Parasitemia in Cultures of Plasmodium falciparum Stained with SYBR Green I and CD235A
A flow cytometric (FACS) detection method for Plasmodium falciparum cultures (P. falciparum) was developed using SYBR Green I and CD235A and compared against the Giemsa stained microscopic examination. The cultured P. falciparum were spiked into red blood cells (RBCs) to yield parasitemia, ranging f...
