To evaluate the diagnostic performance of five alternative serodiagnostic tests, serum samples from 100 confirmed visceral leishmaniasis (VL) patients, 197 healthy endemic individuals, and 58 non-VL patients living in southern Iran were compared. The

Abstract Background Kinesin-related gene diversity among strains and species of Leishmania may impact the sensitivity and specificity of serodiagnostic tests for visceral leishmaniasis (VL). Methods In this study, we report on the recombinant express

Introduction: For the COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) response, COVID-19 antigen (Ag), and antibody (Ab) rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) are expected to complement central molecular testing particularly in low-resource settings. The present review assesses requi

BackgroundAccurate and accessible diagnosis is key for the control of visceral leishmaniasis (VL). Yet, current diagnostic tests for VL have severe limitations: they are invasive or not suitable as point of care (POC) test or their performance is sub

Leishmania infantum is the most common cause of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in Iran, where mainly the patients are children under the age of 5 years. Timely, less invasive, and accurate diagnosis and proper treatment of the disease are necessary. Thi

The direct agglutination test (DAT) for visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is the serodiagnostic test for VL that has the most robust sensitivity and specificity in the field across all endemic regions. It is based on trypsin-treated and formaldehyde-fixed

Current diagnostic tests for visceral leishmaniasis (VL) are either not adapted for use in resource-poor settings or are insufficiently accurate in Eastern Africa. Only the direct agglutination test (DAT), based on whole Leishmania promastigotes, is
