Infection and invasion mechanisms of Trypanosoma cruzi in the congenital transmission of chagas' disease: A proposal
(Society of Biology of Chile, 2010)
Chagas' disease is produced by the haemophlagelated protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi and transmitted by haematophages insects such as Triatoma infestans (vinchuca). Due to vector control, congenital transmission gains importance ...
