Microscopy and molecular biology for the diagnosis and evaluation of malaria in a hospital in a rural area of Ethiopia

13 Jun 2012

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Malaria is a leading public health problem in Ethiopia. Accurate diagnosis of Plasmodium infections is crucial for the reduction of malaria in tropical areas and for epidemiological studies. The role of light microscopy (LM) as gold standard has been questioned and, therefore, new molecular methods have been developed for the detection of Plasmodium species. The aim of the present work was to compare...
