Abstract excerpt

We have focused on the role played by a carnivore, the coati (Nasua nasua), in the transmission cycle of Trypanosoma cruzi in the Brazilian Pantanal biome. We collected data during 2000/01 and 2005-07. Prevalence and pattern of T. cruzi infection were determined by serological tests and hemoculture. Isolates were characterized by miniexon molecular assay. Our results demonstrate that T. cruzi transmission cycle...
