Potential application of the haematology analyser XN-31 prototype for field malaria surveillance in Kenya
Abstract Background Simple and accurate diagnosis is a key component of malaria control programmes. Microscopy is the current gold standard, however it requires extensive training and the results largely rely on the skill of the microscopists. Malaria rapid diagnostic tests (RDT) can be performed wi...
