Application of a multiplex PCR assay for the detection of gastrointestinal pathogens in a rural African setting

BACKGROUND: Despite high morbidity and mortality, the laboratory diagnosis of gastrointestinal infections is largely neglected in tropical African settings. This study aims to apply the Luminex multiplex PCR assay for the diagnosis of gastrointestinal pathogens in rural Ghana to evaluate its usefuln...
