Hello, I am planning to carry out an experiment involving Plasmodium falciparum infected Anopheles mosquito. For this, I have to artificially infect the mosquito with human blood containing gametocytes, after collecting the blood in to heparinized tube. So, in what condition should i keep the sample to prevent exflagellation of the microgametes for successful infection of the mosquitoes and for how long can I keep it before carrying out the experimental infection?
