Molecular surveillance of anti-malarial drug resistance in Democratic Republic of Congo: high variability of chloroquinoresistance and lack of amodiaquinoresistance

2020-03-18

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background: </bold>The loss of chloroquine (CQ) effectiveness has led to its withdrawal from national policies as a first-line treatment for uncomplicated malaria in several endemic countries, such as the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The K76T mutation on the <italic>pfcrt</italic> gene has been identified as a marker of CQ resistance and the SVMNT haplotype in codons 72–76...
