To validate the membrane feeding assay, the infectiousness of #Plasmodium falciparum$ gametocyte carriers to #Anopheles gambiae$ was estimated by these 2 methods in the same individuals in a rural area of Cameroon. Results from 37 experiments showed that direct feeding gave significantly higher infection rates than membrane feeding. We observed an average of 19.4% infected mosquitoes by direct feeding compared with 12.1% by membrane feeding, and a mean oocyst load of 5.63 by direct feeding compared with 2.65 by membrane feeding. However, there was a very good concordance between the 2 tests : 84.3% with the Kappa test on percentages of infected mosquitoes and 98.7% with the interclass correlation coefficient on oocyst loads. In addition, we found a good linear correlation between the 2 methods. (Résumé d'auteur) %$ 052ANOPAL03
