An Effective Method to Purify Plasmodium falciparum DNA Directly from Clinical Blood Samples for Whole Genome High-Throughput Sequencing
18 Jul 2011
Abstract excerpt
Highly parallel sequencing technologies permit cost-effective whole genome sequencing of hundreds of Plasmodium parasites. The ability to sequence clinical Plasmodium samples, extracted directly from patient blood without a culture step, presents a unique opportunity to sample the diversity of "natural" parasite populations in high resolution clinical and epidemiological studies. A major challenge to sequencing...
