Application of COI-LAMP for Detection of Dirofilaria immitis with High Sensitivity and Specificity in Epidemiological Studies
Our results showed that COI-LAMP has high sensitivity in the diagnosis of D. immitis in different hosts. It was also understood that its use in epidemiological studies would be useful. Since it is critical to know more accurate epidemiological data in the fight against the disease, it will be useful to use more sensitive diagnostic methods, like LAMP, in studies to be conducted in this field.
