We have developed a colorimetric assay, "microtiter plate-hybridization", for the detection of human malaria parasite, Plasmodium ovule and Plasmodium malariae, in which the target DNA sequence of the 18s ribosomal RNA gene is amplified by polymerase chain reaction and hybridized with the species-specific probes immobilized on a microtiter well.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
