microwell plate(microtiter plate)
1.We examined 112 samples collected on the filter paper disks in the Solomon islands to compare the value of polymerase chain reaction (PCR)and microtiter plate hybridization (MPH)methods with conventional microscopic examination for detection of malaria.
2.The results were compared with each other. Results The examination specificity of smearor Lowenstein-Jensen culture ,PCR-agarose gel electrophoresis ,PCR-Microwell plate hybridization-ELISA, BBL-MGIT rapid culture was 100%,86%,97.1%,100% respectively; sensitivity was 49.6%,73%,69·6%,56.5% correspondingly.
