寄生虫病仍然在世界许多地区流行，造成人类痛苦和经济损失。生物技术的最新发展，如使用单抗和重组DNA，有可能提供关于受感染的人和昆虫媒介中寄生虫的更广泛和更详细的信息。针对利什曼病和疟疾这两种寄生虫病，已经开发出在人和昆虫媒介中进行检测的新方法。这些新方法将在这些寄生虫病流行和传播的流行病学研究中发挥重要作用。
Parasitic diseases are still prevalent in many parts of the world, causing both human suffering and economic loss. Recent developments in biotechnology, such as the use of monoclonal antibodies and recombinant DNA, have the potential for providing both more extensive and detailed information on the parasite in the infected human and in insect vectors. New methods of detection, both in man and insect vectors, have been developed for two parasitic diseases, leishmaniasis and malaria. These new methodologies will be important in epidemiologic studies on the prevalence and transmission of these parasitic diseases.
