The utilization of Rhodnius neglectus in xenodiagnosis: a study performed on opossums
Em marsupiais (Didelphis), portadores de infecção natural pelo T. cruzi, procurou-se levar a efeito xenodiagnósticos com o emprego de ninfas de Rhodnius neglectus e de Triatoma infestans e através do exame periódico de lotes formados por cinco insetos. Pôde-se observar o melhor rendimento por parte do exame do intestino posterior, mediante dissecção. O

Note on the differentiation between the Rhodnius neglectus and the R. prolixus eggs
An evident structural process allowing the distinction between the Rhodnius neglectus and R. prolixus eggs is described. The former presents a complete collar occupying the preopercular region whilst in the latter species this formation is lacking.

Sodium pumps in the Malpighian tubule of Rhodnius sp.
Malpighian tubule of Rhodnius sp. express two sodium pumps: the classical ouabain-sensitive (Na+ + K+)ATPase and an ouabain-insensitive, furosemide-sensitive Na+-ATPase. In insects, 5-hydroxitryptamine is a diuretic hormone released during meals.

The susceptibility of 3rd instar nymph of Triatominae Rhodnius neglectus, R. robustus and Triatoma infestans to Trypanosoma cruzi Y and AMJM strains was verified using artificial xenodiagnosis. After the accomplishment of the xenodiagnosis, the faeces of the Triatominae were analyzed on two-day intervals from day 5 until day 31 post infection, using ...
