Comparison of different primes for PCR-based diagnosis of cutaneous leishmaniasis
Objective: The objective of this study was to analyze different primers that are commonly used in epidemiological studies for the detection of Leishmania DNA by PCR, and to compare them to the conventional direct parasite search for American cutaneous leishmaniasis (ACL) diagnosis. Material and meth...
