Exploiting genetic polymorphisms in metabolic enzymes for rapid screening of Leishmania infantum genotypes

Abstract Background Leishmania infantum is the aetiological agent of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) and cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL). Numerous strains and/or zymodemes have been identified and characterized by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis (MLEE). MLEE is considered the reference method for L. infa...
