What you see is not what you get: implications of the brevity of antibody responses to malaria antigens and transmission heterogeneity in longitudinal studies of malaria immunity

Samson M Kinyanjui, Philip Bejon, Faith H Osier, Peter C Bull, Kevin Marsh Malaria Journal 2009, 8:242 (28 October 2009)

A major handicap in developing a malaria vaccine is the difficulty in pinpointing the immune responses that protect against malaria. The brevity of antibodies responses makes it difficult to assign the true serological status of an individual at any given time, i.e. those positive at a survey may be negative by the time they encounter the next infection.
