Prior blood feeding effects on susceptibility of Anopheles gambiae (Diptera: Culicidae) to infection with cultured Plasmodium falciparum (Haemosporida: Plasmodiidae)
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 1994)
We examined the relative susceptibilities of Anopheles gambiae Giles of different physiological ages to infection with cultured Plasmodium falciparum (Welch). Cohorts of mosquitoes were divided into three groups; one was ...
Sporozoite transmission by Anopheles freeborni and Anopheles gambiae experimentally infected with Plasmodium falciparum
(The American Mosquito Control Association, 1992)
A micro-membrane feeding technique was used to evaluate sporozoite transmission for Anopheles freeborni and An. gambiae experimentally infected with Plasmodium falciparum. From cohorts of infected mosquitoes with equivalent ...
Quantitation of Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites transmitted in vitro by experimentally infected Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles stephensi
(American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1991)
The frequency and numbers of Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites transmitted in vitro and corresponding sporozoite loads were determined for experimentally infected Anopheles gambiae and An. stephensi. Geometric mean (GM) ...
Sporogonic development of cultured Plasmodium falciparum in six species of laboratory-reared Anopheles mosquitoes
(American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1994)
Sporogonic development of cultured Plasmodium falciparum was compared in six species of Anopheles mosquitoes. A reference species, A. gambiae, was selected as the standard for comparison. Estimates of absolute densities ...
Plasmodium falciparum: The population structure of mature gametocyte cultures has little effect on their innate fertility
(Elsevier BV, 1994)
In vitro cultured Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes were fed to Anopheles gambiae (G3) mosquitoes to identify parasite population characteristics useful for predicting successful mosquito infections. Parameters were collected ...
Immunological factor that affects Anopheles gambiae survival
(The American Mosquito Control Association, 1995)
High titers of antibodies against Anopheles gambiae midguts were produced in New Zealand rabbits to identify midgut targets for an antimosquito vaccine. The serum from one of 8 rabbits (designated R2B6) killed 71.6% (Abbott's ...
Mosquito ingestion of antibodies against mosquito midgut microbiota improves conversion of ookinetes to oocysts for Plasmodium falciparum, but not P. yoelii
(Elsevier BV, 2011-07-13)
The mosquito midgut is a site of complex interactions between the mosquito, the malaria parasite and the resident bacterial flora. In laboratory experiments, we observed significant enhancement of Plasmodium falciparum ...
Noninfectious sporozoites in the salivary glands of a minimally susceptible anopheline mosquito
(American Society of Parasitologists, 1995-12)
In studies to evaluate vector-malaria parasite relationships, we have found that Anopheles albimanus is minimally susceptible to the rodent malaria parasite Plasmodium yoelii. Normally, less than 10% of A. albimanus develop ...
Plasmodium falciparum: Release of circumsporozoite protein by sporozoites in the mosquito vector
(Elsevier BV, 1992)
The release of circumsporozoite (CS) protein by Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites was investigated to identify factors regulating this process within infected Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes. The potential for sporozoites to ...
Population dynamics of Plasmodium falciparum sporogony in laboratory-infected Anopheles gambiae
(American Society of Parasitologists, 1992)
The population dynamics of cultured Plasmodium falciparum parasites was examined during their sporogonic development in Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes. Estimates of absolute densities were determined for each life stage, and ...
