Growth Curve, Morphological and Molecular Characterization of Two Strains of Trypanosoma cruzi (Kinetoplastida, Trypanosomatidae) isolated from Triatoma sherlocki (Hemiptera, Reduviidae, Triatominae)

ABSTRACT Background: Trypanosoma cruzi presents great variability in morphology, virulence, pathogenicity, avoidance of the host immune system, and antigenic constitution, associated with different clinical manifestations of the disease. Methods: Two strains of T. cruzi were cultivated in liver i...
