Prevalence of pfhrp2 and pfhrp3 gene deletions in Puerto Lempira, Honduras
BACKGROUND: Recent studies have demonstrated the deletion of the histidine-rich protein 2 (PfHRP2) gene (pfhrp2) in field isolates of Plasmodium falciparum, which could result in false negative test results when PfHRP2-based rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) are used for malaria diagnosis. Although prim...
