AlbuMAX supplemented media induces the formation of transmission-competent <i>P. falciparum</i> gametocytes

Abstract excerpt
Asexual blood stage culture of Plasmodium falciparum is routinely performed but reproducibly inducing commitment to and maturation of viable gametocytes remains difficult. Culture media can be supplemented with human serum substitutes to induce commitment but these generally only allow for long-term culture of asexual parasites and not transmission-competent gametocytes due to their different lipid composition.
