FIG. 3.
CVs of results for microscopy (•) and PfHRP2 ELISA (▪) as a function of parasite density plotted on a log scale. The LODs for both assays were similar (5.8 iRBCs/μl; arrow), but the reproducibility for microscopy results (CVs, 20.7 to 161.6%) was poor compared to that for PfHRP2 ELISA results (CVs, <10%).
