Malarial Parasites of Man Model
Product Code : JC-BE-6228
The Malarial Parasites of Man Model (SKU JC-BE-6228) is a malaria parasite model that shows how the five Plasmodium species that infect humans appear on Giemsa-stained thick and thin blood smears. It compares the multiple small rings and banana-shaped gametocytes of P. falciparum, the enlarged cells and Schuffner's dots of P. vivax, the band forms and rosette schizonts of P. malariae, the oval, fimbriated cells of P. ovale, and P. knowlesi. It serves parasitology and laboratory technology teaching. JaincoLab manufactures it in Ambala, India.
Specifications
The model is a parasitology teaching model of the human malaria parasites, covering five Plasmodium species, their smear features and the thick and thin film method; its dimensions, material and base are not in the current product data and are confirmed on the quotation.

Uses of the malaria parasite model
Lecturers use the model to teach species identification on blood films and to explain why P. vivax and P. ovale can cause relapsing malaria.
- Explaining thick and thin Giemsa-stained blood films
- Recognising ring forms and banana-shaped gametocytes of P. falciparum
- Identifying Schuffner's dots in P. vivax and P. ovale
- Recognising band forms and rosette schizonts of P. malariae
- Introducing the zoonotic species P. knowlesi
