Prototype Rapid Diagnostic Test Detects Human African Trypanosomiasis
Early diagnosis and treatment of human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) is essential for safe and effective treatment but the tests used to screen suspected patients and populations at risk are difficult to implement in remote rural settings where the disease occurs. More...27 Apr 2016

Immunoassay Detects Severe Fever with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome Virus
Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is a tick-borne infectious disease with a high case fatality rate, and is caused by the SFTS virus (SFTSV) and the disease is endemic to China, South Korea, and Japan. More...25 Apr 2016

Novel Multiplex Immunoassay Developed for Chagas Disease
Different tests are available for the diagnosis of Chagas disease in the clinic or for screening of blood donations. Direct detection of parasite Trypanosoma cruzi in the blood is performed by microscopy, hemoculture, xenodiagnoses, or detection of the parasite’s nucleic acids. More...21 Apr 2016
