Abstract
Changes in· the nucleic acid content of the solid residue obtained by haemolysing the blood of mice infected with Plasmodium berghei have been examined. The residue from blood in which 25 per cent. of the red blood cells were parasitized contained 20-25 times as much ribosenucleic acid (RNA) and 12 times as much desoxyribosenucleic acid (DNA) as the residue from uninfected blood.Keywords
