Sexo del hospedero y dosis infectante de parásitos como factores en el desarrollo de la infección con Trypanosoma cruzi en un modelo murino

Male and female mice of ACA strain were infected with 200 and 2,000 bloodstream trypomastigotes from Dm 28c clone of Trypanosoma cruzi. All the animals were susceptible to the infection regardless of their sex and dose of initial inoculum used. Both male and female, infected with 2,000 parasites sho...

No significant differences were observed during the survival period when comparing females infected with 200 and 2,000 parasites, neither in the case of male and female infected with 200 parasites.
