Encapsulation of Living Leishmania Promastigotes in Artificial Lipid Vacuoles

After phagocytosis by mammalian macrophages, promastigote forms of Leishmania parasites settle inside intracellular parasitophorous vacuoles (PVs) in which they transform into amastigote forms and replicate. Here, using a variant of the ‘inverted emulsion’ method, we succeeded in encapsulating livin...
