Quantitative PCR in Epidemiology for Early Detection of Visceral Leishmaniasis Cases in India

11 Dec 2014

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Studies employing serological, DTH or conventional PCR techniques suggest a vast proportion of Leishmania infected individuals living in regions endemic for Visceral Leishmaniasis (VL) remain asymptomatic. This study was designed to assess whether quantitative PCR (qPCR) can be used for detection of asymptomatic or early Leishmania donovani infection and as a predictor of progression to symptomatic...
