A high-resolution melting approach for the simultaneous differentiation of five human babesiosis–causing Babesia species

Abstract Background Six species of apicomplexan parasites of the genus Babesia, namely B. microti, B. divergens, B. duncani, B. motasi, B. crassa–like and B. venatorum, are considered to be the primary causal agents of human babesiosis in endemic areas. These six species possess variable degrees of...
