Hemoglobin consumption by P. falciparum in individual erythrocytes imaged via quantitative phase spectroscopy

Plasmodium falciparum infection causes structural and biochemical changes in red blood cells (RBCs). To quantify these changes, we apply a novel optical technique, quantitative phase spectroscopy (QPS) to characterize individual red blood cells (RBCs) during the intraerythrocytic life cycle of P. fa...
