Plasmodium falciparum histidine-rich protein 2 (PfHRP2) diversity in Ghana

2020-03-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> In the absence of microscopy, Plasmodium falciparum histidine-rich proteins 2 (PfHRP2)-based rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) are recommended for the diagnosis of falciparum malaria, particularly in endemic regions. However, genetic variability of the PfHRP2 gene threatens the usefulness of the test. This study aimed to investigate the diversity of PfHRP2 in malaria cases among children in Ghana...
