Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Test for Trypanosoma gambiense Group 1 with Stem Primers: A Molecular Xenomonitoring Test for Sleeping Sickness

Figure 1

The position of LAMP and stem primers on T. brucei gambiense-specific glycoprotein (TgsGP) sequence section. The stem section lies between primers F1c and B1. The LAMP product is composed of the sequence between primers F2 and B2c. The outer forward and backward primers (F3/B3) displace the strand and therefore do not form part of the final LAMP product.
