The fusion of mouse red cells induced by 50% w/w poly(ethylene glycol)-6000 in the presence of Ca +2 is enhanced by P. berghei infection. Cells carrying parasites in the ring form stage and early trophozoite stage show slightly higher fusion induced by dimethyl sulphoxide and Ca +2 than those carrying parasites in trophozoite and schizont stages. © 1980, All rights reserved.Mahidol UniversityBiochemistry, Genetics and Molecular BiologyArticleSCOPUS10.1016/0309-1651(80)90195-2
