Sensitive diagnosis of cutaneous leishmaniasis by lesion swab sampling coupled to qPCR

11 Aug 2014

Abstract excerpt

Variation in clinical accuracy of molecular diagnostic methods for cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is commonly observed depending on the sample source, the method of DNA recovery and the molecular test. Few attempts have been made to compare these variables. Two swab and aspirate samples from lesions of patients with suspected CL (n = 105) were evaluated alongside standard diagnosis by microscopic detection of...
