Abstract:

Malaria is a major cause of death in tropical and subtropical nations. Malaria cases are continually rising as a result of a number of factors, despite the fact that the condition is now treatable using effective methods. In this situation, quick and effective diagnostic methods are essential for the management and control of malaria. Malaria diagnosis using conventional methods is still troublesome, hence new technologies have been created and implemented to get around the drawbacks.
