Effect of α-TEA mixed with diet on parasitaemia after P. yoelii 17XL infection in mice. In total, 0.083% and 0.25% (w/w) α-TEA were mixed with diet and fed to C57BL/6 J mice for 7 days before 4 × 104 iRBCs and 14 days after the infection (0.083%-21, 0.25%-21), for 14 days after infection (0.25%-14), and for 11 days from day 3 after infection (0.25%-11). Error bars indicate standard error. Control vs. 0.25%-21, -14, and -11 on day 8; P < 0.05. 0.083%-21 vs. 0.25%-21 on days 4, 6, 8, 12, 14, and 19; P < 0.05. 0.083%-21 vs. 0.25%-14 on days 6 and 8, 10, 12, 14, and 19; P < 0.05. 0.083%-21 vs. 0.25%-14 on days 8, 10, 12, and 14; P < 0.05. 0.25%-21 vs. 0.25%-11 on days 4, 8, 10, 12, and 14; P < 0.05. 0.25%-14 vs. 0.25%-11 on day 4; P < 0.05
