HRM Accuracy and Limitations as a Species Typing Tool for <i>Leishmania</i> Parasites
High Resolution Melting Analysis (HRM) has been pointed out as a suitable alternative method to detect and identify <i>Leishmania</i> species. Herein, we aimed to evaluate the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and limitations of a HSP70-HRM protocol both as a diagnostic scheme applied...
