[cytochemical data on histones of the heterochromatins and euchromatins of triatoma infestans klug (author's transl)].in cells of the malpighian tubes of triatoma infestans klug, the histone content reactive to the alkaline fast green method does not remarkably differ when nuclei with various heterochromatic patterns (t1 and t8) are compared to each other. the fast green-histone values for the euchromatins (and heterochromatins) of both nucleus types also appear not differing. however, the possibility that these histones are differently linked to dna in euchromatin or heterochromatin variants is not to be ruled ...1977339295
observations on the feeding and defecation patterns of three triatomine species (hemiptera: reduviidae).a comparative laboratory study of feeding and defecation behavior of three species of tritomines (rhodnius prolixus, triatoma infestans and t. dimidiata) indicated evident differences among the species and among the different stages of same species. time required for a full blood meal was related to the size of the specimen. insects required an average of 11-28 min for engorgement although some finished within 10 min. t. dimidata frequently interrupted the act of feeding, a probable explanation ...197716468
search for trypanosoma rangeli in endemic areas of trypanosoma cruzi in argentina and brazil.because the presence of trypanosoma rangeli in argentina and brazil has not been confirmed, a serach was carried out in man and triatomine insects. fifty-nine of 207 persons (28.5%) were infected when studied with one or more xenodiagnosis (40 triatoma infestans/xenodiagnosis); 0.1% to 13% of 7,821 bugs' feces and 4% of 875 dissected midguts showed t. cruzi in giemsa stained smears. one of 6,980 hemolymph samples and 1/875 salivary glands showed few flagellates which may have originated in the g ...1977407809
[natural infection of calomys musculinus (rodentia, cricetidae) by trypanosoma cruzi].in the rural area of las higueras, río cuarto, córdoba, argentina, a trypanosoma was isolated from a wild rodent (c. musculinus). the trypanosome was classified as trypanosoma cruzi because of the following characteristics: morphology as described by hoare for the schizotrypanum sub-genus: thin shaped, pointed back end, nucleus placed approximately in the middle of the body, prominent and subterminal kinetoplast and short free flagellum. the size measurements were as follows: total lengh 22.02 + ...1977408884
comparative xenodiagnosis with three triatomine species of different hosts with natural and experimental chronic infections with trypanosoma (schizotrypanum) cruzi.simultaneous xenodiagnosis was made of 29 patients with chronic chagas's disease, six naturally infected opossums (didelphis azarae) and of a rhesus monkey with an experimental chronic infection with trypanosoma (schizotrypanum) cruzi (peru strain). patients and opossums were from an endemic area in the state of bahia, brazil, where panstrongylus megistus is the sole domiciliary vector of the disease to man. various instars of p. megistus triatoma infestans and rhodnius prolixus were used. the p ...1978416525
development of trypanosoma cruzi in the vector in the absence of blood.first stage nymphs of triatoma infestans and dipetalogaster maximus which had never fed after egg hatching, were allowed to ingest by artificial feeding a blood-free suspension of trypanosoma cruzi trypomastigotes collected from experimentally infected mice. a high percentage of the vectors acquired a normal infection and produced infective stages. the parasite's development in the vector did not require blood but may have needed the presence of unknown factors secreted and/or excreted in the in ...197832750
