Adaptation of a visualized loop-mediated isothermal amplification technique for field detection of Plasmodium vivax infection
21 Jun 2011
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a high performance method for detecting DNA and holds promise for use in the molecular detection of infectious pathogens, including Plasmodium spp. However, in most malaria-endemic areas, which are often resource-limited, current LAMP methods are not feasible for diagnosis due to difficulties in accurately interpreting results with problems of sensitive...
