Abstract
⺠The biological behavior of Trypanosoma cruzi strains is still obscure. ⺠Four T. cruzi DTUs were found in the study area in Argentina. ⺠A vector transmission model was developed to maintain T. cruzi isolates. ⺠Different parasite load, serological response and tissue damage among isolates was detected. ⺠Results let us formulate hypotheses of clinical and epidemiological importance.
