Host Response |
Monkey Response
- Vaccine Immune Response Type: VO_0003057
- Challenge Protocol: 100 sporozoites were injected into the saphenous vein. Beginning on day 6 after challenge peripheral thick and thin blood films were examined to determine parasitemia. (Rogers et al., 2001)
- Efficacy: Following challenge with 100 P. knowlesi sporozoites, 1 of 12 experimental monkeys was completely protected and the mean parasitemia in the remaining monkeys was significantly lower than that in 4 control monkeys (Rogers et al., 2001).
