Development, validation and evaluation of a rapid PCR-nucleic acid lateral flow immuno-assay for the detection of Plasmodium and the differentiation between Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax Institute of Tropical Medicine
BACKGROUND: Molecular tools are very sensitive and specific and could be an alternative for the diagnosis of malaria. The complexity and need for expensive equipment may hamper implementation and, therefore, simplifications to current protocols are warranted. METHODS: A PCR detecting the different Plasmodium species and differentiating between Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax was developed and combined with a nucleic acid lateral flow ...
Malaria rapid diagnostic tests: Plasmodium falciparum infections with high parasite densities may generate false positive Plasmodium vivax pLDH lines Institute of Tropical Medicine
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Most malaria rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) detect Plasmodium falciparum and an antigen common to the four species. Plasmodium vivax-specific RDTs target P. vivax-specific parasite lactate dehydrogenase (Pv-pLDH). Previous observations of false positive Pv-pLDH test lines in P. falciparum samples incited to the present study, which assessed P. vivax-specific RDTs for the occurrence of false positive Pv-pLDH lines in P. ...
Sero-epidemiological evaluation of changes in Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax transmission patterns over the rainy season in Cambodia Institute of Tropical Medicine
Test characteristics of the SD FK80 Plasmodium falciparum/Plasmodium vivax rapid diagnostic test in a non-endemic setting Institute of Tropical Medicine
Données obtenues chez les Africains concernant certains facteurs de la susceptibilité des érythrocytes à Plasmodium falciparum et à Plasmodium vivax Institute of Tropical Medicine
Household level spatio-temporal analysis of Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax malaria in Ethiopia Ghent University
Identification of different malaria patterns due to Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax in Ethiopian children : a prospective cohort study Ghent University
A conserved peptide sequence of the Plasmodium falciparum circumsporozoite protein and antipeptide antibodies inhibit Plasmodium berghei sprozoite invasion of Hep-G2 cells and protect immunized mice against P. berghei sporozoite chall Institute of Tropical Medicine
