Selected pictures of agarose gels showing PCR amplification of DNA obtained from 29 of the 71 archived positive RDTs that were used for patients' diagnosis in Muheza and Korogwe districts. 2A: lanes 1-18 = field samples (16 from InterACT in Muheza in lanes 1-13 and 16-18, and 2 from Korogwe in lanes 14-15), 19-22 = positive controls (3D7strain, FCR3 strain, field sample on filter paper and patient sample with 1000 asexual parasites/μl), 23-24 = negative controls; LM = 50 bp ladder marker 2B: lanes 1-11 = field samples (10 from InterACT in 1-10 and 1 from Korogwe in lane 11); 12-15 = positive controls (3D7 strain, FCR3 strain, field sample on filter paper and patient sample with 1000 asexual parasites/μl), 16-17 = negative controls and LM = 50 bp ladder marker.
