O Great St. Joseph of Cupertino who while on earth

did obtain from God the grace to be asked at your

examination only the questions you knew, obtain for

me a like favors in the examinations for which I am

now preparing. In return I promise to make you

known and cause you to be invoked.

Through Christ our Lord.

St. Joseph of Cupertino, Pray for us.

Amen.

Plasmodium vivax – Ring trophozoite

Red cells enlarged

Trippling (Schuffner’s dot) in the RBC cytoplasm

Signet ring appearance (ring is coarse and large)

JMJ 2

N- Nucleus/ chromatin R – Normal RBC V- Vacuole P- Parasitic cytoplasm S – Schuffner’s dots

Plasmodium vivax – Amoeboid trophozoite

Red cells enlarged, strilling more marked

Vacuole starts disappearing.

Parasite nucleus is NOT divided

Parasite cytoplasm developed pseudopodia

(Parasite looks like an amoeba)

Few granules of malaria pigment may be present

JMJ 3

N- Nucleus/ chromatin R – Normal RBC M- Malaria pigment P- Pseudopodia S – Schuffner’s dots

Plasmodium vivax – Immature schizont

Parasitic cytoplasm is compact and collected around nuclear fragment (Pink/red)

Malaria pigment +++

JMJ 6

JMJ 24

Plasmodium falciparum – Male gametocyte/ microgametocyte Gametocyte is sausage shaped with blunt

rounded ends

Parasitic nucleus (pink / red ) is not distinct but diffused.

Parasitic cytoplasm is pinkish in colour.(Due to diffused nucleus ).

Malaria pigment (jet black ) is scattered inside.

No vacuole

JMJ 25


Microgamete
