Twenty-five mice were infected with Leishmania amazonensis and treated with glucamine and oral miltefosine. The criteria used were pad measurements and investigations of amastigotes and cultures after treatment.
miltefosine 2.43 mm and glucamine 3.46 mm (p: 0.05). Miltefosine smears and cultures were negative. Glucamine produced two positive smears and the cultures were positive (p < 0.05). Miltefosine was similar to or better than glucamine.
25只小鼠感染亚马逊利什曼原虫后,用葡糖胺和口服米替福新进行治疗。所采用的标准为治疗后对爪垫的测量以及对无鞭毛体和培养物的研究。
米替福新为2.43毫米,葡糖胺为3.46毫米(p值:0.05)。米替福新涂片和培养物均为阴性。葡糖胺产生了两份阳性涂片,培养物也呈阳性(p < 0.05)。米替福新与葡糖胺效果相当或更佳。
