Abstract:

For close to three decades malaria surveillance efforts in Kilifi county have mainly focused on P. falciparum. To our knowledge, there is a lack of data on the prevalence and trends of P. ovale in Kilifi county. To generate data for a proof-of-concept of molecular surveillance of P. ovale using the curtisi sub-species as an exemplar of non-Pf malarias, a convenient approach of archived samples, readily available primers and reagents were used to screen samples from cross-sectional studies in Kilifi county to: 1) determine the prevalence of P. ovale curtisi mixed and mono infections and 2) determine the sensitivity of different diagnostic assays in detecting P. ovale curtisi infections. This is the main data set for the Akinyi et al. Plasmodium ovale manuscript. This data set provides information on the prevalence of Plasmodium ovale across 3 sites in Kilifi county Kenya. It also provides microscopy and or PCR data for Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium malariae.
