Introduction
Serology, parasitology and molecular biology represent complementary areas of biomedical and life-science research. Serology focuses on measurable components of the immune response in biological specimens, including antibodies and antigens, whereas parasitology addresses parasites, their life cycles, host relationships and associated diseases. Molecular biology provides experimental and analytical approaches for studying nucleic acids, proteins, gene expression and other molecular processes.
