Abstract
⺠The biological behaviour of Trypanosoma cruzi isolates varied significantly in mice. ⺠The largest number of differences was observed between Amazonas and Paraná isolates. ⺠Low levels of parasitemia were observed for Amazonas isolates. ⺠The Paraná isolates presented longer patent periods and higher levels of parasitemia. ⺠There were correlations between biology of T. cruzi and the epidemiology of Chagas disease.
