Energetic metabolism of axenic promastigotes of Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis
Experimental Parasitology, 2011 Leishmania spp are protozoans capable of carbohydrates degradation and as energy source they can use glucose, aminoacids or lipids from the environment. The products of the metabolic pathways such as organic acids may be used as an index of their energetic metabolic profile.
