Aislamiento de Trypanososmas a partir de materia fecal de Rhodnius prolixus

Abstract

A methodology is described for isolating Trypanosomoa sp. from feces of infected Rhodnius prolixus. The control of bacterial and fungal conamitation was made by adding antibiotic and antimicotic agents which did not inhibit the growth of Trypanososma sp. The importantce of this methodology for vector surveys is shown.
