Example sentences for: filariasis

How can you use “filariasis” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Work underway is focused on trying to develop a standardized PCR methodology for all filariasis programs to employ [ 14 ] . Simple standardized methods would permit comparisons of infection levels across epidemiologic settings as has been done with PCR assays for O. volvulus in black flies for Onchocerciasis control programs [ 4 5 ] . PCR methods for onchocerciasis work reliably for pools of up to 100 fly heads, an important advantage in terms of cost and throughput.
Monitoring transmission levels based on levels of infective larvae may not be feasible within the scope of lymphatic filariasis elimination programs in settings like Leogane where Culex is the vector because of the relative rarity of identifying infective mosquitoes.
These results will have important implications for the length of lymphatic filariasis elimination programs.
Not with dramatic pathology as are filariasis, or schistosomiasis, but with damage silent and insidious.
Furthermore, in preliminary studies, PCR was more sensitive for detecting filarial parasites in mosquitoes than conventional dissection and microscopy [ 3 ] . The ability to adapt PCR techniques to detect microfilariae in pools of mosquitoes suggests that current PCR methods should be adequate for testing large numbers of mosquitoes in the context of filariasis elimination programs.
