Abstract: A total of 125 rats were infected with the Colômbia strain of T. cruzi (2000 parasites/g) shortly after weaning. Of these, 58 survived the acute phase and were used in the present experiment. Twenty eight similar but not infected rats served as controls. All rats were submitted to the resting ECG When they were 6 months old. Classic and 3 precordial leads were employed in order to record the ECG as completely as possible. Electrocardiographic changes similar to those found in human chronic Chagas' heart diseas… Show more

“…Sixteen rats were inoculated intraperitoneally with 200,000 T. cruzi parasites ("Y" strain) and 16 were used as controls 7 . Between days 18 and 21 after inoculation (acute stage) 4,11,35 , 8 infected animals and 8 controls were anesthetized with intraperitoneal injection of urethane (Sigma, 1.25 g/kg). The animals breathed trough tracheal cannulation.…”
