Novel primer sequences for polymerase chain reaction-based detection of Trypanosoma brucei gambiense.
1 Sept 2002
Abstract excerpt
Progress in diagnosis, treatment, and epidemiology of human African trypanosomiasis (sleeping sickness) depends on the existence of specific and sensitive diagnostic tools. Inherent shortcomings of serologic and parasitologic diagnostic methods can be overcome by molecular techniques. Therefore, we have developed a new polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test using primers derived from the recently identified...
