A Modified Semi-Nested Multiplex Malaria PCR (SnM-PCR) for the Identification of the Five Human Plasmodium Species Occurring in Southeast Asia
We have modified an existing semi-nested multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) by adding one Plasmodium knowlesi-specific nested PCR, and validated the latter against laboratory and clinical samples. This new method has the advantage of being relatively affordable in low resource settings while identifying the five human Plasmodium species with a three-step PCR.
متن کاملHexaplex PCR Detection System for identification of five human plasmodium
Malaria remains one of the major killers of humankind and persists to threaten the lives of more than one-third of the world's population. Given that human malaria can now be caused by five species of Plasmodium, i.e., Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium malariae, Plasmodium ovale, and the recently included Plasmodium knowlesi, there is a critical need not only to augment global...
متن کاملSCAR markers and multiplex PCR-based identification of isomorphic species in the Anopheles dirus complex in Southeast Asia.
The Anopheles dirus Peyton & Harrison complex of mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) comprises seven known species, including important malaria vectors in Southeast Asia. Specific identification of each species of the complex, which cannot be distinguished using morphological characters, is crucial for understanding vector ecology and implementing effective control measures. Derived from individual...

متن کاملidentification of human plasmodium species using pcr-rflp technique
objectives: malaria is the most important tropical disease in terms of morbidity and mortality. the diagnosis of malaria can be conveniently subdivided into clinical, parasitological, biochemical, serological and molecular biological detection. the objective of the present work was to compare two techniques, blood smear and pcr-rflp, for detection of plasmodium species. materials & method...
