A critical evaluation of the expression of parasitemia in experimental Chagas' disease [PDF]

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 1993
This paper aims to study the best way to express the parasitemia of Trypanosoma cruzi's experimentally infected animals. Individual scores may have a great variability, not emphasized by the majority of the authors. A group of 50 rats infected with 1x10(6) trypomastigotes of T.
