Post-Graduate Program of Biological Sciences, Biological Sciences Center at State University of Maringa, Maringa, Paraná, Brazil.
Purpose: Our goal was to analyze the outcome of infection and response to benznidazole (BZ) treatment in mice intragastrically inoculated with trypomastigotes forms of Trypanosoma cruzi from different origins.
Methods: Twenty-four Swiss mice were divided in two groups and inoculated, by gavage, with 1 × 10 blood trypomastigotes (BT) or insect-derived metacyclic trypomastigotes (IT) of AM14 strain (T. cruzi IV).
