Sensitive and specific detection of Trypanosoma vivax using the polymerase chain reaction
The nucleic acid probes that are currently in use detect and distinguish Trypanosoma vivax parasites according to their geographic origin. To eliminate the need for using multiple DNA probes, a study was conducted to evaluate the suitability of a tandemly reiterated sequence which encodes a T. vivax...
