Immunofluorescence detection of the P. falciparum PVM-resident antigens RAP1 and EXP2 after haemolysis. a Immunofluorescence staining of P. falciparum after haemolysis with saponin, representative images of > 200 parasites. b Immunofluorescence staining of P. falciparum after haemolysis with streptolysin O, representative images of n = 70 parasites. Note, only RAP1 was detected, indicating that the EXP2 epitope faces the PV lumen. In the merged images, EXP2 and RAP1 signals are shown in green; Hoechst signal is shown in blue. Scale bar, 5 μm
