Asymptomatic Carriers of <I>Plasmodium</I> spp. as Infection Source for Malaria Vector Mosquitoes in the Brazilian Amazon

1 Sept 2005

Abstract excerpt

We have described the existence of asymptomatic carriers of Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum infections in native Amazon populations. Most of them had low parasitemias, detected only by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Because they remain symptomless and untreated, we wanted to determine whether they could infect Anopheles darlingi Root, the main Brazilian vector, and act as disease reservoirs. Fifteen...
