Diagnosis of Trichomoniasis in Male Patients on Performing Nested Polymerase Chain Reaction

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Parasitology, 2017
Trichomoniasis is a parasitic infection that occurs with the settlement of Trichomonas vaginalis in female and male urinary and reproductive tracts. This infection is generally asymptomatic in males, and males are thought to be a carrier for the transmission of infection. In this study, our aim was to detect trichomoniasis using nested polymerase chain
