A new survey of the serology of human Trypanosoma cruzi infection in the Rio Negro microregion, Brazilian Amazon: a critical analysis

The serology of human Trypanosoma cruzi infection in the Rio Negro microregion is very complex because of the large numbers of false-positive cases that result from low antibody titres and cross-reactions with other infections. In the present study, we collected 4,880 blood samples on filter paper;...
