Polymerase chain reaction of dried blood spots to detect parasite DNA in individuals with lymphatic filariasis
Lymphatic filariasis caused by Brugia malayi has traditionally been detected in the blood of infected individuals by microscopy.Screening for blood-stage microfilaria (mf) by microscopy is labour intensive with user fatigue and poor specimen handling responsible for false negative results. Recently...
