Blood Host Sources ofMepraia spinolai(Heteroptera: Reduviidae), Wild Vector of Chagas Disease in Chile

1 Mar 2001

Abstract excerpt

There are two vectors of the Chagas' disease in Chile: Triatoma infestans Klug the domestic vector and Mepraia spinolai Porter the sylvatic vector. The alimentary profile of M. spinolai has been poorly studied. In this work we study the participation of humans, goats, dogs, cats, rodents, rabbits, birds (hens) and reptiles in the diet of M. spinolai by analyzing the intestinal content through immunoradiometric...
