Hence, there is a need for rapid and effective diagnosis to prevent fatalities.\n\n== Detailed description of the solution ==\n\nThe preci MALARIA P.f/P.v Rapid Test is able to detect the presence of the malarial parasite antigen, LDH. A small blood sample is placed on a test strip, and if the antigen is present a pink/purple line will appear at a specific location on the strip after 15 minutes. The test can also discriminate between P.falciparum and P.vivax.\n\n== Designed by ==\n\n* Designed by: Precision Biotech\n* Manufacturer location: Jaipur, India\n\n== References ==\n\n=== Other internally generated reports ===\n\n* \"PreciMALARIA P.F/P.V.\" Precision Biotech.
