DOI: 10.1016/j.ijppaw.2019.02.004
Abstract: Trypanosoma spp. infection in wild mammals is detected mainly through parasitological tests that usually display low sensitivity. We propose the use of DNA extracted directly from blood clots (BC), which are neglected sources of DNA… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijppaw.2021.09.003
Abstract: Bats are infected with several trypanosomatid species; however, assessing the diversity of this interaction remains challenging since there are species apparently unable to grow in conventional culture media. Accordingly, the ecology and biology of the… read more here.
