Abstract
Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas' disease, is a very heterogeneous population of parasites circulating among man, vectors and wild and domestic reservoirs. Until now, few data have been reported about the T. cruzi isoenzymatic strains circulating in the Bolivian sylvatic reservoirs. In the present study we reported the isoenzyme typification of 9 Trypanosomatidae stocks isolated from wild Bolivian mammals.
