Analysis of pfhrp2 genetic diversity in Senegal and implications for use of rapid diagnostic tests
BACKGROUND: The Senegalese National Malaria Control Programme has recommended use of rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) that target the histidine-rich protein 2 (HRP2), specific to Plasmodium falciparum, to diagnose malaria cases. The target antigen has been shown to be polymorphic, which may explain the...
