Development of a highly sensitive loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) method for the detection of Loa loa.

Development of a highly sensitive loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) method for the detection of Loa loa.

The filarial parasite Loa loa, the causative agent of loiasis, is endemic in Central and Western Africa infecting 3-13 million people. L. loa has been associated with fatal encephalopathic reactions in high Loa-infected individuals receiving ivermectin during mass drug administration programs for th...
