title: [Molecular biological techniques in the diagnosis of tropical parasitic diseases].
abstract: Recent advances in the development of molecular biological techniques have resulted in their supplementary application for improved diagnosis of tropical parasitic diseases. The main areas of interest are the production of recombinant antigens for immunodiagnosis, and the detection of parasites by hybridization of nucleic acids and by DNA amplification (PCR) in vitro.
