IgG antibody responses to Plasmodium falciparum merozoite antigens in Kenyan children have a short half-life.
BACKGROUND: Data suggest that antibody responses to malaria parasites merozoite antigens are generally short-lived and this has implications for serological studies and malaria vaccine designs. However, precise data on the kinetics of these responses is lacking. METHODS: IgG1 and IgG3 responses to f...
