Measuring the efficacy of anti-malarial drugs in vivo: quantitative PCR measurement of parasite clearance
BACKGROUND: Artemisinin-based combination therapy, currently considered the therapy of choice for uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria in endemic countries, may be under threat from newly emerging parasite resistance to the artemisinin family of drugs. Studies in Southeast Asia suggest some p...
