LAMPhimerus: A novel LAMP assay for detecting Amphimerus sp. DNA in human stool samples.
Amphimeriasis is a fish-borne disease caused by the liver fluke Amphimerus spp. that has recently been reported as endemic in the tropical Pacific side of Ecuador with a high prevalence in humans and domestic animals. The diagnosis is based on the stool examination to identify parasite eggs, but it...
