Innovative approaches used to combat Chagas disease transmission tend combine a set of comprehensive efforts understand the ecology local vectors. In this work we identified molecularly blood meal 181 Triatoma brasiliensis, distributed in 18 populations (8 sylvatic and 10 peridomestic), which were collected across range 240 km (East-West) 95 (North-South) semi-arid region northeastern, Brazil. We vertebrate mitochondrial gene (cytochrome B) sequencing applied DNA isolated from bug midgut...
Abstract Chagas disease is a neglected tropical strongly associated with low socioeconomic status, affecting nearly 8 million people – mainly Latin Americans. The current infection risk based on acute case reports, most of which are typically oral transmissions. In the semi-arid region Northeastern Brazil, serious outbreaks this transmission type have surged in last years. One those occurred city Marcelino Vieira (2016), state Rio Grande do Norte. Rural residents four municipalities...
