Sero-Epidemiology as a Tool to Screen Populations for Exposure to Mycobacterium ulcerans

BACKGROUND: Previous analyses of sera from a limited number of Ghanaian Buruli ulcer (BU) patients, their household contacts, individuals living in BU non-endemic regions as well as European controls have indicated that antibody responses to the M. ulcerans 18 kDa small heat shock protein (shsp) ref...
