Detection of Plasmodium spp. in blood samples by gel electrophoresis on a 2% agarose gel, Venezuela. DNA amplicons generated by nested PCR of the DNA extracted from malaria parasites in blood samples from patients. Lane 1, negative control; lanes 2 and 3, P. falciparum–infected samples; lanes 4 and 7, mixed infection (P. falciparum + P. vivax) samples; lanes 5 and 6, P. vivax–infected samples; lane 8, mixed positive controls of P. falciparum (205 bp) and P. vivax (120 bp); lane 9, 100-bp ladder
