Genetic Variations of Plasmodium Falciparum Histidine-rich Protein 2 and 3 in Assosa Zone, Ethiopia: Its Impact on the Performance of Malaria Rapid Diagnostic Tests

2021-06-09

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Rapid diagnostic tests (RDT) are commonly used for the diagnosis of Plasmodium falciparum malaria. However, false negative results of RDT caused by genetic variations of P. falciparum histidine-rich protein 2 and 3 genes ( pfhrp2/3) threaten existing malaria case management and control efforts. The main objective of this study was to investigate the genetic variations of the pfhrp2/3 genes. <...
