  • Publication number: 20110230369
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for screening compounds for their ability to increase rigidity of red blood cells (RBCs) infected by a protozoan parasite of the genus Plasmodium and in particular by Plasmodium falciparum. The present invention also relates to a method for filtering RBCs that enables retention, in a filtering unit, of RBCs having an abnormal and in particular a decreased deformability, as a surrogate for spleen filtering function.
