A multi-center field study of two point-of-care tests for circulating Wuchereria bancrofti antigenemia in Africa
BACKGROUND: The Global Programme to Eliminate Lymphatic Filariasis uses point-of-care tests for circulating filarial antigenemia (CFA) to map endemic areas and for monitoring and evaluating the success of mass drug administration (MDA) programs. We compared the performance of the reference BinaxNOW...
