Figure 2: Effects of the active extracts from the Colombian North Coast plants on the development of the parasite. Plasmodium falciparum strain Dd2 cultures incubated for 48 h compared to the untreated control cultures. Active extracts: (a) Bursera simaruba, (b) Guazuma ulmifolia, (c) Murraya exotica, (d) Hippomane mancinella, (e) Capparis odoratissima in the concentration range 1.0–100 μg/mL, and (f) chloroquine (range 0.01–1 μg/mL). The following morphological changes can be observed: pyknotic forms (P), alterations in the normal shape of rings (x), forms with delayed maturation of trophozoites (Y), and increases in the size of the parasitophorous vacuole (Z)
