The in vitro amino acid production by Babesia rodhaini, Plasmodium berghei and uninfected rat erythrocytes was determined following 4 and 18 h of incubation in Krebs Ringer medium. Both parasites produced excess free amino acid. B. rodhaini produced up to 150 times and P. berghei up to 1,100 times as much free amino acid as parasite-free rat erythrocytes. The composition of excess amino acids produced by both parasites had a statistically significant concordance with the amino acid composition of rat haemoglobin, suggesting that haemoglobin was probably the main source of the amino acids produced by the parasites.
在Krebs Ringer培养基中孵育4小时和18小时后，测定了罗得西亚巴贝斯虫、伯氏疟原虫以及未感染的大鼠红细胞的体外氨基酸生成情况。两种寄生虫均产生了过量的游离氨基酸。罗得西亚巴贝斯虫产生的游离氨基酸量高达无寄生虫大鼠红细胞的150倍，伯氏疟原虫产生的游离氨基酸量高达1100倍。两种寄生虫产生的过量氨基酸组成与大鼠血红蛋白的氨基酸组成具有统计学上的显著一致性，这表明血红蛋白可能是寄生虫产生氨基酸的主要来源。
