Immunofluorescence Microscopy of P. falciparum Merozoite Invasion Time courses of invasion by wide-field immunofluoresence assay (IFA) microscopy with deconvolution (single slice or three-dimensional reconstruction) labeled with PfRON4. For TEM numbering, see the main text. The IFA scale bar represents 2.0 mm. In 3D images, gamma settings were altered, and the grid represents 0.5 mm intervals. DG, dense granules; Mi, micronemes; N, nucleus; PV, parasitophorous vacuole; R, rhoptries; TJ, tight junction.
