Complete schizogony occurred in the new medium SCMI 612 in which 34 out of 43 isolates produced merozoites. The RPMI 1640 and Waymouth media suitable for the cultivation of P. falciparum were also used with markedly less success. Results of the experiments indicate differences in nutritional requirements between the two species of Plasmodium. Copyright © 1985, Wiley Blackwell.
