PCR and Mosquito dissection as tools to monitor filarial infection levels following mass treatment
BACKGROUND: Entomological methods may provide important tools for monitoring the progress of lymphatic filariasis elimination programs. In this study, we compared dissection of the vector, Culex quinquefasciatus, with the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to assess filarial infection levels in mosquit...
