Uncovering Trypanosoma spp. diversity of wild mammals by the use of DNA from blood clots
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife"
DOI: 10.1016/j.ijppaw.2019.02.004
Abstract: Trypanosoma spp. infection in wild mammals is detected mainly through parasitological tests that usually display low sensitivity. We propose the use of DNA extracted directly from blood clots (BC), which are neglected sources of DNA… read more here.
