Abstract
Background: PCR based diagnosisforVisceral Leishmaniasis(VL), despitenumerouspublished primers, remainsfar from

Methods: Leishmania specific primers were developed using 18S rRNA gene and their sensitivity was evaluated on 500
parasitologically confirmed patients with VL and 25 Post Kala-azar Dermal Leishmaniasis (PKDL) patients. Specificity was
calculated on 250 healthy endemic controls, 250 healthy non endemic controls and 250 non leishmanial diseases like
malaria.
