Optimizing Plasmodium vivax gametocyte enrichment to enhance transmission to Anopheles mosquitoes

2026-07-22

Abstract excerpt

Background Plasmodium vivax is the second leading cause of malaria worldwide. The lack of continuous in vitro culture of P. vivax hampers research efforts, including research on transmission to mosquitoes and sporozoite biology . Here, we present methodological improvements to achieve high mosquito infection rates. Methods We compared two gametocyte enrichment methods: magnetic cell sorting (MACS) and Percoll...
