ABSTRACT
Immunofluorescence labeling enables the detection and characterization of various parasite proteins presented on the surface of the infected red blood cell. Several approaches for immunofluorescence detection of red blood cell surface-presented proteins of Plasmodium spp. have been successfully established and published over the years. However, finding the right approach depends on the scientific question, and different protocols have different advantages. Here, we discuss some aspects that should be considered and present an easily applicable protocol for labeling parasite surface antigens, which subsequently can be analyzed by immunofluorescence microscopy (or flow cytometry).
