Ítem An in vivo model to study the anti-malaric capacity of plant extracts(Universidad de Costa Rica, 1998) Chinchilla, Misael; Guerrero., OIga; Abarca, Gabriela; Barrios, , Mariano; Castro, OscarAn in vivo model to study the antimalaric effect of plant extracts is described. White mice (25-30g body weight) are treated subcutaneously with 0.6ml of the diluted extract starting seven days before P. berghei infection; treatment continues until death or for 30 days. Simultaneously 0.2ml of the extract are applied per os starting three days before infection. In a test of the model, treated and non-treated animals differed in body weight, survival time, haematocrite, parasitemia development, and spleen or liver weight of recent dead or killed mice.
