ABSTRACT
This mini review summarises the non-invasive urine-based diagnostic approaches that have been used to diagnose malaria. Amongst all urine-based diagnosis methods, commercially available Rapid Diagnostic kit/strip is most likely to be suitable for malaria detection in a cost-effective, time-consuming and user-friendly manner. With further improvement in sensitivity, specificity and accuracy, this technique may become a useful next-generation gold standard malaria diagnostic tool in resource-limited regions and in areas where invasive blood tests are restricted.
