Suitability of a rapid DNA isolation and amplification for detection of Trypanosoma cruzi in Triatoma infestans dry fecal spots collected on filter paper
A rapid DNA extraction was used for T. cruzi detection in triatomines dry fecal spots collected on filter paper and analyzed by PCR. Fifty T. infestans were fed on experimentally infected Balb/C mice with high T. cruzi parasitemia and divided into five groups of ten triatomines, and 100 triatomines...
