PET-PCR reveals low parasitaemia and submicroscopic malarial infections in Honduran Moskitia

Malaria Journal, 2023
Background Malaria remains a main parasitic disease of humans. Although the largest number of cases is reported in the African region, there are still endemic foci in the Americas. Central America reported 36,000 malaria cases in 2020, which represents 5.

Noise and aliases in off-axis and phase-shifting holography [PDF]

, 2008
We have compared the respective efficiencies of off-axis and phase-shifting holography in terms of noise and aliases removal. The comparison is made by analyzing holograms of an USAF target backlit with laser illumination, recorded with a charge-coupled ...

Sensitivity of candling as routine method for the detection and recovery of ascaridoids in commercial fish fillets

Scientific Reports, 2022
Ascaridoids are one of the main parasitic hazards in commercial fish. Candling is the current industrial screening method whereby visible ascaridoid larvae are detected on a light table and manually removed.

Malaria Detection Accelerated: Combing a High-Throughput NanoZoomer Platform with a ParasiteMacro Algorithm

Pathogens, 2022
Eradication of malaria, a mosquito-borne parasitic disease that hijacks human red blood cells, is a global priority. Microscopy remains the gold standard hallmark for diagnosis and estimation of parasitemia for malaria, to date. However, this approach is

A focus on improving molecular diagnostic approaches to malaria control and elimination in low transmission settings: Review

Parasite Epidemiology and Control, 2019
The malaria elimination goal is back to the global agenda. Understanding its epidemiology in low transmission settings is crucial to design reliable strategies to detect a large reservoir of individuals infected with sub-microscopic (and often ...
