An innovative test that combines a DNA extraction system inspired by a modified 3D printer (PrintrLab) with loop-mediated isothermal molecular amplification (LAMP) could be used to detect T. cruzi infection—responsible for Chagas disease—in newborns. This is the conclusion of a proof-of-concept study conducted in the Bolivian Chaco, an endemic area for Chagas disease. The study was coordinated by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal) in collaboration with the CEADES Foundation (Bolivia), CONICET-INGEBI (Argentina), AI Biosciences (U.S.), FIND (Switzerland) and the Mundo Sano Foundation (Argentina). The study is published in Read More
