There are five species of Plasmodium protazoan parasites which cause malaria in humans, of which Plasmodium falciparum is the deadliest [1,2], being responsible for almost all of the estimated 655,000 deaths from malaria in 2010 [3], the majority being of young children. Around 90% of the malaria-related deaths occur in sub-Saharan Africa, where P. falciparum is the cause of more than 75% of malarial infections.
