“…Caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, a protozoan normally transmitted by the bite of Triatoma infestans (blood-sucking beetles) which, after being bitten, defecates releasing T. cruzi, which penetrates through injured regions or in contact with the mucous membranes, and starts the cycle in mammals. Endemic to Latin America, Chagas disease can be transmitted orally by eating food contaminated by parasite (De Jesus et al, 2021;De Morais et al, 2015;Dias et al, 2014;Herrera et al, 2015;Martins-Melo et al, 2019;Pérez-Molina et al, 2015;Shender et al, 2016). In addition, this disease has been a concern in developed countries that have identified immigrants who presented the parasite and cause dissemination via blood and placental transmission (Antinori et al, 2017;Garcia et al, 2015), with an estimated 75 million people at risk of infection, especially in the 21 countries of Latin America (Aguilar et al, 1999;Costa et al, 2021;Garcia et al, 2015;Santana et al, 2020).…”
