The development and pathogenicity of a Trypanosoma cruzi strain ("Chile 5") of low virulence were studied after infection of nude rats with different doses of blood trypomastigotes (10-10(7) parasites/rat). Peak parasitemias were correlated with the infection dose, which also influenced the mean survival times (26-36 days post-infection). Within 26 or 27 days, a subcutaneous injection of 10(7) blood trypomastigotes developed to about 8-20 x 10(7) parasites/ml.
用不同剂量的血液型锥鞭毛体(每只大鼠10 - 10⁷个寄生虫)感染裸鼠后,研究了低毒力克氏锥虫菌株(“智利5号”)的发育和致病性。最高虫血症与感染剂量相关,感染剂量也影响平均存活时间(感染后26 - 36天)。在26或27天内,皮下注射10⁷个血液型锥鞭毛体后,寄生虫数量发展到约8 - 20×10⁷个/毫升。
