Abstract:Background: Currently, the gold standard to assess parasite developmental stages in mosquitoes is light microscopy. Microscopy can miss low-density infections, is time-consuming and not species-specific. This can place limitations on studies, especially when the infection status of larger mosquito populations is important and studies are done in co-endemic settings with multiple circulating parasite species. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has been the alternative technique to evaluate the infectivit… Show more
