Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms of Pfdhfr and Pfdhps Genes: Implications for Malaria Prophylactic Strategies in Maiduguri, Northeast Nigeria
Background. The success of Intermittent Preventive Treatment in Pregnancy (IPTp), Intermittent Preventive Treatment in Infancy (IPTi), and Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention (SMC) depends on sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) efficacy. Objective. The study determined Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs)...
