Such isolates are prone to selective transmission and thus form a challenge to case management. As most of the rapid malaria diagnostic tests are based on the detection of HRP2 protein in the blood, we attempted to use Glutamate Dehydrogenase (GDH) as a biomarker for the diagnosis of <jats:italic>P. falciparum<\/jats:italic>. Recombinant PfGDH was successfully cloned, expressed and purified using the Ni-NTA approach. Polyclonal antibodies were raised against full-length rPfGDH and its peptides. Antibodies for rPfGDH showed a strong immune response against the recombinant protein. However, antibody showed no affinity towards the peptides, which suggests they failed as antigen. Antibodies for rPfGDH significantly detected the GDH in human blood specimens. This is the first report where <jats:italic>P. falciparum<\/jats:italic> GDH was detected in malaria cases from various parts of India. The raised polyclonal antibodies had shown an affinity for PfGDH in quantitative ELISA and are capable to be exploited for RDTs. This research needs further statistical validation on a large number and different sample types from candidates infected with <jats:italic>P. falciparum<\/jats:italic> and other species.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1038\/s41598-020-62850-x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,4,14]],"date-time":"2020-04-14T09:02:48Z","timestamp":1586854968000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Glutamate dehydrogenase: a novel candidate to diagnose Plasmodium falciparum through rapid diagnostic test in blood specimen from fever patients"],"prefix":"10.1038","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Lokesh D.","family":"Kori","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Neena","family":"Valecha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anupkumar R.","family":"Anvikar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,4,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"62850_CR1","unstructured":"World Malaria Report 2018.
