Index Malaria culture

Malaria culture is the method to grow malaria parasites outside the body i.e. in an ex vivo environment. [1]

Antimalarial medication

Antimalarial medications, also known as antimalarials, are designed to prevent or cure malaria.

Apicomplexan life cycle

Apicomplexans, a group of intracellular parasites, have life cycle stages evolved to allow them to survive the wide variety of environments they are exposed to during their complex life cycle.

Blood film

A blood film—or peripheral blood smear—is a thin layer of blood smeared on a glass microscope slide and then stained in such a way as to allow the various blood cells to be examined microscopically.

Blood plasma

Blood plasma is a yellowish coloured liquid component of blood that normally holds the blood cells in whole blood in suspension; this makes plasma the extracellular matrix of blood cells.

Candle

A candle is an ignitable wick embedded in wax, or another flammable solid substance such as tallow, that provides light, and in some cases, a fragrance.

Carbon dioxide

Carbon dioxide (chemical formula) is a colorless gas with a density about 60% higher than that of dry air.

Charles C. Bass

Charles Cassedy Bass (1875–1975) was a medical doctor and researcher on tropical medicine with significant contributions to understanding malaria, hookworm, and other diseases.

Density

The density, or more precisely, the volumetric mass density, of a substance is its mass per unit volume.

Desiccator

Desiccators are sealable enclosures containing desiccants used for preserving moisture-sensitive items such as cobalt chloride paper for another use.

Diamagnetism

Diamagnetic materials are repelled by a magnetic field; an applied magnetic field creates an induced magnetic field in them in the opposite direction, causing a repulsive force.

Differential centrifugation

Differential centrifugation is a common procedure in microbiology and cytology used to separate certain organelles from whole cells for further analysis of specific parts of cells.

Ex vivo

Ex vivo (Latin: "out of the living") means that which takes place outside an organism.

Fire extinguisher

A fire extinguisher is an active fire protection device used to extinguish or control small fires, often in emergency situations.

Hemozoin

Haemozoin is a disposal product formed from the digestion of blood by some blood-feeding parasites.

Incubator (culture)

In biology, an incubator is a device used to grow and maintain microbiological cultures or cell cultures.

Malaria

Malaria is a mosquito-borne infectious disease affecting humans and other animals caused by parasitic protozoans (a group of single-celled microorganisms) belonging to the Plasmodium type.

Malaria vaccine

Malaria vaccine is a vaccine that is used to prevent malaria.

Nitrogen

Nitrogen is a chemical element with symbol N and atomic number 7.

Nutrient

A nutrient is a substance used by an organism to survive, grow, and reproduce.

New!!: Malaria culture and Nutrient · See more »

Oxygen

Oxygen is a chemical element with symbol O and atomic number 8.

New!!: Malaria culture and Oxygen · See more »

Paramagnetism

Paramagnetism is a form of magnetism whereby certain materials are weakly attracted by an externally applied magnetic field, and form internal, induced magnetic fields in the direction of the applied magnetic field.

Parasitemia

Parasitemia is the quantitative content of parasites in the blood.

New!!: Malaria culture and Parasitemia · See more »

Parasitism

In evolutionary biology, parasitism is a relationship between species, where one organism, the parasite, lives on or in another organism, the host, causing it some harm, and is adapted structurally to this way of life.

Percoll

Percoll is a tool for more efficient density separation in biochemistry that was first formulated by Pertoft and colleagues.

Petri dish

A Petri dish (sometimes spelled "Petrie Dish" and alternatively known as a Petri plate or cell-culture dish), named after the German bacteriologist Julius Richard Petri, is a shallow cylindrical glass or plastic lidded dish that biologists use to culture cellssuch as bacteriaor small mosses.

Postdoctoral researcher

A postdoctoral researcher or postdoc is a person professionally conducting research after the completion of their doctoral studies (typically a PhD).

Red blood cell

Red blood cells-- also known as RBCs, red cells, red blood corpuscles, haematids, erythroid cells or erythrocytes (from Greek erythros for "red" and kytos for "hollow vessel", with -cyte translated as "cell" in modern usage), are the most common type of blood cell and the vertebrate's principal means of delivering oxygen (O2) to the body tissues—via blood flow through the circulatory system.

Roswell Park Memorial Institute medium

Roswell Park Memorial Institute medium, commonly referred to as RPMI medium or RPMI 1640, is a form of medium used in cell culture and tissue culture used for growing a variety of mammalian cell lines.

Serum (blood)

In blood, the serum is the component that is neither a blood cell (serum does not contain white or red blood cells) nor a clotting factor; it is the blood plasma not including the fibrinogens.
