Field evaluation of a novel, rapid diagnostic assay RLDT, and molecular epidemiology of enterotoxigenic <i>E. coli</i> among Zambian children presenting with diarrhea

2022-03-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is one of the top aetiologic agents of diarrhea in children under the age of 5 in low-middle income countries (LMICs). The lack of point of care diagnostic tools for routine ETEC diagnosis results in limited data regarding the actual burden and epidemiology in the endemic areas. We evaluated performance of the novel Rapid LAMP based Diagnostic Test (RLD...
