A PCR-based assay for the sensitive and accurate determination of malaria parasite species that commonly infect humans, including discrimination of Plasmodium ovalecurtisi and Plasmodium ovalewallikeri
There are six Plasmodium species that commonly infect humans including Plasmodium ovalecurtisi, and Plasmodium ovalewallikeri. To ensure successful malaria control, it is important to track their prevalence and understand their epidemiological and clinical characteristics. Current PCR-based malaria diagnostic techniques targeting the highly sensitive mitochondrial genome do not distinguish…
