Abstract:
Since haemoplasmodium is not detected for screening in blood donor,morbidity of transfusion-associated malaria increased rapidly in China recently and became an important problem of public health.It is necessary to emphasize donor screening for malaria.Hematology analyzer with MAPSS is recommended to screen malaria.Flow cytometry and immunochromatography test(ICT)can also screen malaria effectively.For the suspicious samples with haemoplasmodium,it is necessary to be reexamined by standard microscopic examination or polymerase chain reaction(PCR).
