Rapid and accurate methods are needed for the diagnosis of imported malaria. The ParaSight-F test and the ICT Malaria Pf test are commercially available kits marketed for the diagnosis of Plasmodium falciparum malaria. Both tests are antigen-capture assays based on the detection of P. falciparum his

Background: Venipuncture sampling in test tubes for detecting malaria parasites using PCR assays possesses a number of limitations such as reluctance of patients, some difficulties in transportation of blood samples and freezing them for long time. To overcome the mentioned limitations, some approa
The cellular protooncogene MYC encodes a nuclear transcription factor that is involved in regulating important cellular functions, including cell cycle progression, differentiation, and apoptosis. Dysregulated MYC expression appears critical to the development of various types of malignancies, and t
