Estudio comparativo de la sensibilidad y mortalidad de las ninfas III y IV de Triatoma infestans usadas en el xenodiagnóstico de pacientes crónicos.

Triatoma infestans nymphs have shown a good sensitivity for detecting Trypanosoma cruzi in the blood stream of infected hosts when are used in the xenodiagnosis (XD). This method, with its natural limitations, using seven nymphs III of T. infestans, has been routinely utilized with satisfactory yiel...
