Quantitative PCR in epidemiology for early detection of visceral leishmaniasis cases in India.

Quantitative PCR in epidemiology for early detection of visceral leishmaniasis cases in India.

Studies employing serological, DTH or conventional PCR techniques suggest a vast proportion of Leishmania infected individuals living in regions endemic for Visceral Leishmaniasis (VL) remain asymptomatic. This study was designed to assess whether quantitative PCR (qPCR) can be used for detection of...
