BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES: Malaria is a parasitic disease spread by Plasmodium parasite. Microscopy, lateral flow devices such as the Rapid Diagnostic Test (RDT), molecular methods such as Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), isothermal methods such as Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), and other diagnostic methods are available for malaria. On the other hand, the accuracy of molecular diagnosis is dependent on genomic DNA isolation. A quick method for isolating and subjectively determining the presence of genomic DNA from blood, dried blood spot (DBS), and rapid diagnostic test (RDT), was identified...
