Limitations of PCR detection of filarial DNA in human stools from subjects non-infected with soil-transmitted helminths
The standard techniques for diagnosis of human filariasis are the microscopic examination of blood smears or skin biopsies, which are relatively invasive and poorly sensitive at low levels of infection. Recently, filarial DNA has been detected in fecal samples from non-human primates in Central Afri...
