Extended Data Table 1 Transformation efficiency of stage V gametocytes to PfSPZ in mosquitoes and in vitro culture

From: In vitro production of infectious Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites

  1. Footnote: iPfSPZ yields were 7.4, 4.3, 4.2 and 2.8-fold more in in vitro cultures with Matrigel, rat tail collagen, GMP collagen and no-matrix respectively compared to PfSPZ yield in mosquitoes. aEstimated gametocytes ingested per mosquito (see Extended Data Table 2 footnote).
  2. bCalculated based on the average PfSPZ yield in 20 experiments in which mPfSPZ were produced.
