Abstract
IgG class and subclass levels were measured in the sera of malaria‐infected patients who had high serum antibody titres (≥ 1 in 5,120) as well as in uninfected controls with low serum malaria antibody titres (< 1 in 320). The malaria‐infected patients had higher IgG and IgGI subclass levels than the uninfected controls (p< 0.005). There was a slight diminution in the mean IgG3 concentration in the malaria‐infected patients.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
