Results are P. falciparum (Pf), P. vivax (Pv) or negative (Neg). Samples are grouped by similar results by all techniques, there are 11 result combinations and are represented in each of the tables rows. Molecular consensus in column five is was determined when two or more of the three molecular techniques were alike. |
