Overview
- Detection kits for Malaria
- Available in TaqMan format for analysis
Malaria is a mosquito-borne infectious disease and considered one of the leading causes of death in the world. Malaria is a fatal tropical disease that is caused by a parasite knows as Plasmodium. It is usually spread through the bite of an infected female mosquito. 300-500 million new infected cases are estimated every year with 1.5-2.7 million deaths worldwide. Most of the malaria-related deaths occur in sub-Saharan Africa. . Although blood is the sample most frequently used to make a diagnosis, both saliva and urine have been investigated as alternative, less invasive specimens

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All kit components can be stored for 2 years after the date of production without showing any reduction in performance.
All kit components should be stored at -20°C upon arrival. Repeated thawing and freezing (> 2 x) of the Master Mix and Positive Control should be avoided, as this may affect the performance of the assay. If the reagents are to be used only intermittently, they should be frozen in aliquots.
