Measuring Asymmetric Ionic Current Waveform Through Micropores for Detecting Reduced Red Blood Cell Deformability Due to <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> Infection

The mechanisms underlying reduced deformability of red blood cells (RBCs) in <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> remain unclear. The decrease in RBC deformability associated with malarial infection was measured using ektacytometry, and only mean values were evaluated. In this study, we report t...
