| Abstract: | A semi-automated apparatus for the continuous cultivation of the malarial parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, was developed. It changes the culture medium and redistributes ths infected erythrocytes at preselected intervals. Parasitemias between 2 and 16% can be maintained by adding fresh erythrocytes every 2 or 3 days. This apparatus produces approximately 10 ml of packed erythrocytes per week with parasitemias between 12 and 16% |
