In a research laboratory room, Fria enthusiastically walked in a row of basal flasks, each separately, looking for signs of illness.
The bottles all contained stockings, one of which belonged to a child carrying a malaria parasite.
When I discovered Freya, a strain of Spanil Springer, the smell stopped and I sat next to the jar waiting for a reward.
"Dogs are able to distinguish between socks worn by children with parasites and children uninfected by malaria," said Clare Geest, a member of Medical Deteche Dogz.
Researchers believe that the smell of the malaria parasite attracts the mosquito that spreads the disease.
"It's the same smell as dogs probably," said Steve Linzi, a professor at Durham University and senior author of the study.
The charity, created in 2008, hopes that its trials, which are in its infancy, will allow dogs to join their efforts to eliminate one of the deadliest diseases.
The study is still in its infancy and research teams plan to test more if dogs can detect people with malaria.
Researchers believe that entry dogs could be a quick and effective way to stop the parasite from crossing the border.
"If you already have people with malaria parasites, they probably have a very powerful odor index," he said.
The sensitivity of dogs to detect odors in the fight against other diseases has also been recognized. British authorities have approved experiments to train dogs to detect prostate cancer and intestines by sniffing urine.
Despite the drop in malaria mortality rates, the World Health Organization (WHO) said progress in the fight against the disease could be halted, noting that most of the victims were children under five years old. years living in sub-Saharan Africa.
According to the World Health Organization, malaria infected 216 million people worldwide in 2016, killing 445,000 people, an increase of nearly 16,000 from 2015.
