Fig. 4From: Optimisation of the DNA dipstick as a rapid extraction method for Schistosoma japonicum in infected mice samples and spiked human clinical samplesOptimisation of the DNA dipstick on spiked mice urine and sera. a DNA spiking of negative mice urine and sera. Amplification was observed after heating at 65 °C for 40 min in a water bath or 65 °C for 90 min in a thermocycler.
