Considerations on the use of nucleic acid-based amplification for malaria parasite detection
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Nucleic acid amplification provides the most sensitive and accurate method to detect and identify pathogens. This is primarily useful for epidemiological investigations of malaria because the infections, often with two or more <it...
