    Abstract: The purpose of this study was to establish the optimal conditions to performance a multiple Polymerase Chain Reaction (multiplex) to detect the presence of emerging parasites Cryptosporidium spp., Mycrosporidium spp., Isospora belli, and Cyclospora spp. simultaneously, by targeting the 16S ribosomal gene in patients immunocompromised. After an exha... Show More
