The Parasitology market within the context of Infectious Disease Testing is a specialized field of medical diagnostics that focuses on the detection and identification of parasites. Parasites are organisms that live in or on another organism, known as the host, and obtain nutrients from the host. Parasites can cause a variety of diseases, including malaria, schistosomiasis, and toxoplasmosis. Parasitology testing is used to diagnose these diseases and to monitor the effectiveness of treatment. Parasitology testing is typically performed using a variety of methods, including microscopy, antigen detection, and molecular techniques. Microscopy is the most common method used to detect parasites, as it allows for the direct visualization of the organism. Antigen detection tests are used to detect the presence of specific antigens associated with the parasite, while molecular techniques are used to detect the presence of the parasite’s genetic material. Companies in the Parasitology market include Bio-Rad Laboratories, DiaSorin, Hologic, and Quidel. Show Less Read more
