Antigenic components in Triatoma infestans haemolymph

Journal of Insect Physiology, 1972
Abstract Immunoelectrophoretic experiments were made of the antigenic composition of Triatoma infestans haemolymph, taking instar and feeding into consideration. Haemolymph from adult male insects against antiserum to haemolymph of T. infestans, revealed between 14 and 17 antigenic components.

Nervous system of Triatoma infestans

Journal of Morphology, 1994
AbstractThe anatomy of the adult nervous system of the haematophagous bug Triatoma infestans has been studied by means of dissections and histology. The central nervous system comprises three nervous masses: the brain + suboesophageal ganglion, the prothoracic ganglion, and the posterior fused ganglion (meso + metathoracic + abdominal ganglia).

Population dynamics and control of Triatoma infestans

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, 1992
Abstract. Analysis of field populations of Triatoma infestans (Hemiptera: Reduviidae), after a 3‐year study, shows that population growth rate is affected by both density‐dependent and density‐independent mortality.

Hydrocarbon biosynthesis in Triatoma infestans eggs

Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, 1994
AbstractTriatoma infestans eggs are shown to synthesize hydrocarbons. Radio‐gas chromatography was used to demonstrate metabolism of [1‐14C]propionate into precursor methyl‐branched fatty acids and into methyl‐branched hydrocarbons in T. infestans eggs. These reactions have not been demonstrated previously in insect eggs.

Brindley's gland exocrine products of Triatoma infestans

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, 1995
Abstract olatile exocrine products of the metathoracic Brindley's glands in Triatoma infestans (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) were obtained by dissection and by sampling the air passed over agitated live adults.

Female specific proteins in Triatoma infestans haemolymph

Journal of Insect Physiology, 1973
Abstract The presence of female specific proteins in triatoma infestans haemolymph, as well as the relationship between the female specific proteins and egg proteins, were analysed. At the same time, the presence of specific female proteins in different instars was studied.

TRIATOMA INFESTANS CHOOSES TO FEED UPON IMMUNE PREY

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2006
Blood-feeding Triatoma infestans obtained its fills from immune chickens in 15 min, but it needed 40 min for feeding upon non-immune chickens. High-titer specific IgGs and skin reactivity against T. infestans saliva antigens were elicited in immune chickens.

Competitive displacement in Triatominae: the Triatoma infestans success

Trends in Parasitology, 2006
Brazil has just been certificated by Pan American Health Organization as 'free of Chagas disease transmission due to Triatoma infestans'. During the early 1980s, this species of blood-sucking bug alone was considered responsible for approximately 80% of Chagas disease transmission. But it was not always so.

Enzyme Polymorphism Among Triatoma infestans (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) Colonies

Journal of Medical Entomology, 1995
Allozyme variability in populations of the Chagas's disease vector Triatoma infestans (Klug) was investigated by means of starch gel electrophoresis. Samples were taken from nine laboratory colonies established with individuals collected at different localities across the range of this insect in South America. Zymograms for proteins coded by a total of
