Analytical Sensitivity of the tHDA Malaria Assay
| Sample no. | Parasitemia (%) | Fold of dilution | Final concentration (parasites/μL)∗ | tHDA test 1 results (positive/total) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NS-046 | 2.3 | 1000 | 115 | 1/2 |
| NS-060 | 8.8 | 2000 | 220 | 1/2 |
| NS-109 | 0.3 | 100 | 150 | 2/2 |
| NS-110 | 1.1 | 333.3 | 165 | 1/2 |
The parasite concentration in blood was calculated using the following formulation: Number of Parasites/μL = % Parasitemia × (5 × 106 Red Blood Cells/mL)/(100 × Fold of Dilution).
