In a paper so important that it got a prize from the American Association for the Advancement of Science, they announced that they had bred in a test tube two types of animalcules. One causes malaria in monkeys and the other (Plasmodium vivax...

McKee said that they now know, pretty well, what foods the monkey parasite thrives on-para-aminobenzoic acid (a B complex vitamin), glycerol sodium acetate, certain other vitamins and amino acids. They have also been able to test the effect of antimalarial drugs...
