A comparative study between the Enzyme-Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay (ELISA-CSP) for circumsporozoitic antigen detection method, the direct observation after dissection and the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique used to identify Plasmodium falciparum genomic DNA markers was carried out. This to evaluate the sensibility and the specificity of the PCR, for the determination of both sporozoitic index (ICSP) and the entomological inoculation rate (EIR). The study is conducted in laboratory on eighty six specimens of Anopheles gambiae M infected after being fed with the blood of a gametocytes carrier from Dielmo (Senegal). Salivary glands of forty-eight specimens randomly selected (test A) among the infected eighty six are microscopically observed after manual dissection for the sporozoites detection. The content of these salivary glands and the crushed head/thorax of the remaining 38 specimens (test B) are tested in ELISA-CSP and PCR. The positive and negative results obtained were recorded and summarized for each method. A pair-comparison of the results obtained with each method generally revealed a good sensibility and an excellent specificity The kappa coefficient (K) of test A indicated a "moderate" to "excellent" concordance between the three different methods performed. By using the crushed head/thorax sample, generally used to determine the transmission parameters (ICSP and EIR), the PCR/ELISA-CSP concordance was excellent. In the light of the values of sensibility and specificity obtained, this PCR is comparable to the other methods for the assessment of sporozoitic index and entomological inoculation rate.
