Agarose gel electrophoresis pictures showing bands of 15 representative PCR products.

<p>The first lane (lane L) contains ladder (100 bp marker) for comparison of PCR products and for determination of product size. The second lane (Lane 1) contains PCR products from negative control, lane 2 contains product of negative control with human DNA. Lanes 3–6 display 120 bp PCR product signifying <i>P</i>. <i>vivax</i> mono infection and lanes 7–11 show 205 bp PCR product testifying mono infection of <i>P</i>. <i>falciparum</i>. Lanes 12–13 and 15 present both the bands of 120 bp (<i>P</i>. <i>vivax</i>) and 205 bp (<i>P</i>. <i>falciparum</i>) size in a single sample, indicating mixed species infections due these two species of malaria parasites.
