Synthesis and investigation of the trypanocidal potential of novel 1,2,3-triazole-selenide hybrids.

Chagas Disease is caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi and is considered a tropical neglected disease by the World Health Organization (WHO). The main drugs used in the therapy of the disease are obsolete and, as a result, it still kills millions of people every year.
