Comediation of Erythrocyte Haemolysis by Erythrocyte-Derived Microparticles and Complement during Malaria Infection

Figure 2

In vitro measurement of % haemolysis against complement concentration. From the graph, it can be seen that increasing complement concentration results in increased haemolysis. This shows the extent to which variation in complement concentration affected haemolysis when a fixed concentration of the EMP is used. Addition of anti-C9 however reduced percentage haemolysis drastically.
