  • Patent number: 8034551
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for malaria testing which enables testing for the presence of malaria infection and the extent of the infection in a convenient manner; and a reagent or kit which can be used in the method. The method for malaria testing according to the present invention includes the step of detecting a liver-type fatty acid binding protein present in urine collected from a subject animal. The extent of infection is determined to be higher when a larger amount of the liver-type fatty acid binding protein is present in a test sample.
