lmmunoelectron micro-graphs showing reactivity of mAb 33G2 (arrow) with P. falciparum (P)-infected erythrocytes. Note the absence of gold particles in an uninfected erythrocyte (UE). Bars: a. 1 mm: b. 0.25 mm. The localization of Ag reacting with mAb 3362 to the membrane of P. falciparum-infected erythrocytes was confirmed. The binding of the mAb was mainly confined to the area just under the erythrocyte membrane. Scattered clusters of labeling were also observed within the intracellular parasite as well as in the erythrocyte cytoplasm. mAb 3362 reacts with RESA and antigens 332 and Pf11.1.
