Abstract excerpt

A study was carried out in Lambaréné, Gabon, to analyse malarial infections in pregnant women. Blood samples from peripheral circulation and term placentas from 37 women were diagnosed as parasite-positive by thick blood smears. Infection was confirmed by PCR, using single-copy merozoite surface protein 1 and 2 genes. Of the 37 matched cord blood samples, 17 were positive by PCR amplification, even though all but...
