Potential value of Plasmodium falciparum‐associated antigen and antibody detection for screening of blood donors to prevent transfusion‐transmitted malaria

BACKGROUND: Malaria antibody detection is a valuable tool in the prevention of transfusion‐transmitted malaria in countries with a high proportion of donors with travel exposure to malaria. The immunofluorescent antibody test (IFAT) is still the reference method, but it is not suitable for screening of blood donors. ELISA would be an interesting alternative to the IFAT, but it lacks sensitivity.
