Molecular diagnosis of Chagas disease in Colombia : Parasitic loads and discrete typing units in patients from acute and chronic phases

Background: The diagnosis of Chagas disease is complex due to the dynamics of parasitemia in the clinical phases of the disease. The molecular tests have been considered promissory because they detect the parasite in all clinical phases. Trypanosoma cruzi presents significant genetic variability and...
