| Popis: | Specific immune serum was found to inhibit the dispersal of the merozoites from mature schizonts, thus interfering with their subsequent reinvasion of new host erythrocytes. This phenomenon is viewed as a protective mechanism against malaria which can be measured in vitro and reflects the immune status of the donor. |
