Evaluation of a non-isotopic polymerase chain reaction-based assay to detect and predict treatment failure of Plasmodium vivax malaria in travellers

Abstract

With the emergence of chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium vivax (CRPV), new tests to detect P. vivax and predict response to therapy would be useful for
