Comparative evaluation of three PCR base diagnostic assays for the detection of pathogenic trypanosomes in cattle blood
Currently, several PCR based diagnostic assays have been developed to improve the detection of pathogenic trypanosomes. These tests include use of species specific primers, single and nested PCRs' based on primers amplifying the Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) regions of ribosomal DNA. This study...
