Malaria Tests:
OnSite Pf / Pv Ab Rapid Test
 Malaria Facts
  • 3.2 billion people live in areas of risk for disease transmission
  • 350-500 million clinical episodes of malaria occur each year
  • At least one million deaths occur every year due to malaria
  • The most vulnerable groups are:
    • Young children without protective immunity to malaria
    • Pregnant women with decreased immune systems
    • Travelers or migrants lacking immunity to malaria
  
 OnSite Pf / Pv Ab Rapid Test
  • Instant screening test
  • Detects infections caused by any of the four malaria parasite species
  • Differentiates the infection of Pf from the other three species in one single test
  • Suitable for people having not built protective immunity in regions with low malaria incidence (Latin America and Asia)
  • CE marked, US FDA exportation certified
