Scabies Detected by Molecular Methods in Skin Scrapings

Scabies caused by Sarcoptes scabiei mites, is a highly contagious parasitic disease characterized by intense itching which is aggravated at night. Infections by scabies mites result in various skin eruptions consisting of papules, nodules, vesicles, and excoriated eczematous lesions due to scratching. More...
