Improving eDNA filtration and purification for qPCR detection of <i>Schistosoma mansoni</i> in lakes Albert and Victoria

2025-03-31

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Schistosomiasis, a parasitic disease caused by Schistosoma trematodes, remains a significant public health burden in sub-Saharan Africa, particularly in regions with limited access to clean water, sanitation and hygiene. Effective disease control strategies rely on large-scale surveillance to accurately identify and target high-risk populations. However, traditional methods such as malacologi...
