Hemozoin and hemoglobin characterization by optical absorption towards a miniaturized spectrophotometric malaria diagnostic system

Published: Jan 1, 2017
Abstract
Malaria is a parasitic disease with high prevalence in regions with inefficient healthcare conditions. Currently, the most used diagnostic methods in endemic regions are microscopy and rapid diagnostic tests by immunochromatographic assays. This work proposes an alternative miniaturized optical diagnostic method by spectrophotometry, for hemozoin (Hz) and hemoglobin (Hb) quantification and classification. Hz is a subproduct of the malaria...
