Multilayer Thin-Film Optical Filters for Reflectance-Based Malaria Diagnostics

Multilayer Thin-Film Optical Filters for Reflectance-Based Malaria Diagnostics

Malaria diagnosis relies on optical microscopy and/or rapid diagnostic tests based on detecting specific malaria antigens. The clinical sensitivity of these methods is highly dependent on parasite density, with low levels of detection at low parasite density, challenging the worldwide malaria elimin...
