Genomic DNA extraction and amplification of Leishmania donovani using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) from archived, Giemsa- stained slides
<p>In Sri Lanka, diagnosis of cutaneous leishmaniasis<strong> (</strong>CL) is usually based on clinical features and direct microscopy examinations. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for <em>Leishmania</em> is usually performed on tissue samples. In this study, we extrac...
