| Application Notes | This antibody showed>80% reduction in oocyst density at 100 μg/mL. The antibody is more potent than any other identified anti-Pfs25 antibody (IC₈₀ = 16 μg/mL) and has much less potent recombinant Pfs25 binding affinity in the same low nanomolar range (KD = 4.6 nM) as multiple other mAbs. |
