Abstract
We report on the kinetics of formation of hemozoin as a function of hemin concentration and reaction medium. Evidence is presented for the critical role played by interfacial regions in the efficient conversion of hemin to the malaria pigment.
Graphical abstractA new protocol is described for studying the kinetics of the conversion of hemin to hemozoin.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
