Frequency of Pfcrt T76 and Pfdhfr Asn-108 Drug Resistance Mutations in falciparum Malaria in Southeastern Malaria Endemic Area of Iran [PDF]
Background: Point mutations in the genes, Pfcrt and Pfdhfr, have been identified elsewhere as strongly associated with resistance to chloroquine (CQ) and pyrimethamine, respectively.
