Measuring Growth, Resistance and Recovery after Artemisinin Treatment of Plasmodium falciparum in a semi-high-throughput Assay

Mackenzie A. C. Sievert, Puspendra P. Singh, Douglas A. Shoue…·Michael T. Ferdig

This paper develops and validates a qPCR-based assay to measure growth, resistance, and recovery of Plasmodium falciparum after artemisinin treatment, showing distinct phenotypes with independent genetic determinants.
