“…Lesions found by the histopathological examination of the different tissues (heart, lung and liver) of the experimentally infected rabbits in our study found were consistent to the ones demonstrated by other authors who studied lesions in animals and man (Morales et al, 1996;Esteban-Redondo et al, 1999). Tissues harboring T. gondii tachyzoites in this study most frequently were the heart and liver tissue, but organisms were detected less frequently in the lung this in agreement with results obtained by Prickett et al (1985), Da Silva and Langoni (2001) and Shaapan and Ghazy (2007).…”

“…The final sediment was resuspended in 3ml of TNE buffer (200mM NaCl, 20mM Tris, 50mM EDTA, pH8.0), and DNA was extracted as previously described (Silva and Langoni, 2001). Briefly, 3.6µl of each sample was transferred to a microtube and diluted in 246.4µl of TNE and 250µl of TNE extraction buffer (200mM NaCl, 20mM Tris, 50mM EDTA, 0.6mg K proteinase and 2% SDS).…”

“…Devido ao desequilíbrio ecológico, esses vetores passaram a invadir os abrigos dos animais domésticos e as habitações humanas, adaptando-se progressivamente a esses ecótopos artificiais. Assim, o T. cruzi passou a infectar o homem e os animais domésticos susceptíveis, como o cão e o gato, tornando a DC uma típica zoonose (11,12).…”

“…Assim, a presença desses parasitas em cães e gatos representa um sinal de alerta para ações efetivas de controle de vetores, no caso os triatomíneos, vulgarmente conhecidos por "barbeiros" (2,13,14). Deve-se ressaltar a importância dos reservatórios silvestres (gambá, rato, ouriço, preguiça, tamanduá, morcego, cachorro-do-mato, coelho, macaco, dentre outros) no ciclo de transmissão da doença, tendo em vista que, devido às mudanças no meio ambiente, aproximaram-se das moradias humanas e adaptaram-se a esses novos ecótopos (12).…”
