| Abstract |
Trichomonas vaginalis is a sexually transmitted protozoan parasite of humans. Treatment of trichomoniasis is almost completely dependent on the old drug metronidazole and is hampered by resistance. New drug development, like routine screening for drug resistance, has however been hampered by the lack of reliable screening protocols with sufficient throughput. Here we report on two separate in vitro protocols that use fluorescent dyes and allow for standardized drug sensitivity testing on the required scale. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 27 January 2015.
All research outputs
#20,251,039
of 22,780,165 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#9,870
of 13,093 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#296,009
of 353,203 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#627
of 992 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,780,165 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,093 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.3. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 353,203 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 992 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
