Prevalence, infected density or individual probability of infection? Assessing vector infection risk in the wild transmission of Chagas disease
(The Royal Society, 2020)
Vector-borne infectious disease dynamics result mainly from the intertwined effect of the diversity, abundance, and behaviour of hosts and vectors. Most studies, however, have analysed the relationship between host-species ...

Organs infected with Trypanosoma cruzi and DTU identification in the naturally infected rodent Octodon degus
(Elsevier, 2020)
Chagas disease is a public health problem in America. Its parasite, Trypanosoma cruzi, presents different discrete typing units (DTUs), colonizes organs of mammalian hosts in chronic infections, and presents tropism for ...
Comparative ex vivo infection with Trypanosoma cruzi and Toxoplasma gondii of human, canine and ovine placenta: Analysis of tissue damage and infection efficiency
(Elsevier, 2020)
Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, and Toxoplasma gondii, which is responsible for Toxoplasmosis, are two parasites that cause significant protozoan zoonoses and consequently important economic losses ...
Differential time to positivity and quantitative cultures for noninvasive diagnosis of catheter-related blood stream infection in children
(Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, 2008)
Background: Accurate diagnosis of catheter-related blood stream infection (CRBSI) is necessary to make a decision about removal of the catheter. Differential time to positivity (DTP) and the ratio of quantitative cultures ...
Global proteomic profiling of piscirickettsia salmonis and salmon macrophage-like cells during intracellular infection
