Provide information on the different types of test kits for ebola and what exactly they test in the human body.
Hi Dr. Chiroma:
Im not familiar with ebola test kits at all. I am also not current on latest advances in medical diagnostics as Ive been spending most of my time teaching science at high school over the past 5 years or so and now serving as Campus Director. Kinda been out of the research and medical diagnostics loop but I am now planning to get back on tract, especially in area of Chagas disease and entomological assessment of triatomine bugs. sincerely
Dear Dr. Chiroma
From a search I recommend 2 articles about it (both attached):
A current review of Ebola virus: pathogenesis, clinical presentation, and diagnostic assessment.
Casillas AM, Nyamathi AM, Sosa A, Wilder CL, Sands H.
Biol Res Nurs. 2003 Apr;4(4):268-75.
Infectious Diseases. Testing new Ebola tests.
Vogel G.
Science. 2014 Sep 26;345(6204):1549-50.
I hope these could be useful.
