Comparison of three molecular methods for the detection and speciation of Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum

15 Sept 2007

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Accurate diagnosis of Plasmodium spp. is essential for the rational treatment of malaria. Despite its many disadvantages, microscopic examination of blood smears remains the current "gold standard" for malaria detection and speciation. PCR assays offer an alternative to microscopy which has been shown to have superior sensitivity and specificity. Unfortunately few comparative studies have been done on...
