Comparison of PCR methods for detection of Leishmania siamensis infection

1 Oct 2014

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Leishmania siamensis, a newly identified species, has been reported as a causative agent of leishmaniasis in Thailand. This organism has been identified and genetically characterized using PCR techniques based on several target genes. However, the sensitivities and specificities of these methods for the diagnosis of L. siamensis infection have never been evaluated. METHODS: To evaluate the...
