Abstract: Comparamos os métodos de Imunofluorescência Indireta (IFI), Imunodifusão Radial Dupla e Aglutinação, para a pesquisa de anticorpos em soros, na tripanossomíase experimental por Trypanosoma evansi, em cobaias. Foram obtidas 20 amostras de soro correspondentes às 4 primeiras semanas de infecção. A IFI foi positiva em apenas 6 animais, com títulos variando de 1:4 a 1:16. Os títulos mais altos foram observados na 3ª semana pós-infecção. Anticorpos aglutinantes foram observados a partir da 1ª semana pós-infecção e,… Show more

“…This suggests the humoral immune response, at least in this host model, to be far from being sufficient for controlling the parasite populations. It is worth mentioning that the Wistar rats responded earlier and with higher serological titers than previously reported for other animal models such as dogs (Aquino et al 1999), rabbits (Luckins et al 1978), camels (Luckins et al 1979) and guinea pigs (Oliveira et al 1989). Probably there exist characteristic mechanisms for controlling the parasitaemia in each animal species.…”
