A Real Time PCR Assay for Quantification of Parasite Burden in Murine Models of Leishmaniasis

2018-05-02

Abstract excerpt

Eukaryotic parasites in the genus Leishmania place approximately 350 million people per year at risk of disease. In addition to their global health significance, Leishmania spp. have served as an important model for delineating basic concepts in immunology such as T-helper cell polarization. There have been many qPCR based assays reported for measuring parasite burden in humans and animals. However, these are la...
