## Abstract In the stratum granulosum of mammalian epidermis, histidinβrich proteins (filaggrins) determine keratin clumping and matrix formation into terminal keratinocytes of the stratum corneum. The nature of matrix, interkeratin proteins in the epidermis of nonmammalian vertebrates, and in part
The ParaSightTM-F dipstick test (Becton Dickinson, USA) and the ICT Malaria PPM test (ICT, Australia) both detect histidine rich protein 2 (HIV-2), a water-soluble antigen expressed byPlasmodium falciparum trophozoites. The present study compared the diagnostic performance of both tests in persons r
