متن کاملMolecular Diagnostics of Parasitic Infections
DNA-based methods have been available for many years in most clinical microbiology laboratories. However, until recently, these tools were not routinely exploited for the diagnosis of parasitic infections. Laboratories were reluctant to implement PCR, not knowing how to incorporate such an approach in the algorithm of tools available for the most accurate diagnosis of a large variety of parasit...
