Populations of slums in the same conditions or the presence rationed water (one tap for 150 people) restricts hygiene.

The sampling system as part of a consultation in routine care (will be in DBS (blotter) only alternative to invasive venous sample and requiring heavier care facility. The capillary sampling on filter will also detect a marker of malnutrition .

Thus in live in large social precariousness adult this study should show which interventions in public health and management proposals are most appropriate for this population.
