Description:
The Malaria Rapid Diagnostic Test (RDT) Or Malaria Antigen Test is a quick and convenient test used to detect malaria infections by identifying specific proteins (antigens) produced by malaria parasites in the blood.
Key features of the test include:
• Speed: Results are available within 15–30 minutes.
• Ease of use: Does not require specialized equipment or laboratory facilities.
RDTs are commonly used in remote or resource-limited settings to diagnose malaria quickly, especially for Plasmodium falciparum, the most severe form of malaria. However, positive results are often confirmed with a microscopy-based test for accuracy.
