Abstract
SYNOPSIS. Infected blood (from the rhesus monkey with P. coatneyi or an Aotus trivirgatus monkey with P. falciparum ) was placed in a special vial equipped with an overflow tube 2–3 mm above the bottom of the vial. A slow flow (50 ml per day) of culture medium was maintained over the settled layer of red cells. In favorable experiments both species of parasites went thru 2 cycles of development without addition of fresh erythrocytes. so that late schizonts and young rings were present after 4 as well as after 2 days of incubation. There was, however, no increase in total parasite number.
