A new diagnostic strategy which uses a luminol-H(2)O(2) system to detect helminth eggs in fecal sediments processed by the Helmintex method
Schistosomiasis remains a serious public health problem in tropical regions, affecting more than 250 million people. Sensitive diagnostic methods represent key tools for disease elimination, in particular in areas with low endemicity. Advances in the use of luminol-based chemiluminescent techniques...
