Detection and Species Identification of Malaria Parasites by Isothermal tHDA Amplification Directly from Human Blood without Sample Preparation
22 Jun 2013
Abstract excerpt
We report the clinical and analytical performance of an isothermal thermophilic helicase-dependent amplification assay for blood Plasmodium parasite detection and species-level identification. The assay amplifies the 18S rRNA gene fragment of all Plasmodium species and uses a species-specific probe and a pan-malarial probe to definitively identify Plasmodium falciparum from other infectious Plasmodium species....
