Identification of Blood Meal Source and Infection with <i>Trypanosoma cruzi</i> of Chagas Disease Vectors Using a Multiplex Cytochrome b Polymerase Chain Reaction Assay

20 Nov 2007

Abstract excerpt

Long-term control of triatomine bugs in Chagas endemic regions will depend on a full understanding of vector-parasite-host interactions. Herein we describe a cytochrome b multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based strategy for blood meal source identification in bug foregut contents. This technique discriminates human from animal blood, and has been tested in five Triatoma species from México. Host...
