A direct comparison of real time PCR on plasma and blood to detect Plasmodium falciparum infection in children
BACKGROUND: Estimation of Plasmodium falciparum parasitaemia can vary with the method used and time of sampling. Quantitative real time PCR (qPCR) on whole blood or plasma samples has previously been shown to be more sensitive than thick film microscopy. However the efficiencies of each method have...
