Abstract excerpt
Antimalarial drug resistance developed in Plasmodium falciparum has become a problem for malaria control. Evaluation of drug resistance is the first step for effective malaria control. In this study, we investigated the gene mutations of P. falciparum using blood samples from returned Chinese migrant workers in order to identify drug resistance-associated molecular markers. These workers returned from Africa and...
