Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi) is the etiological agent of Chagas disease. T. cruzi is a protozoan parasite with a life cycle involving triatomid insects as vectors and infecting a variety of mammalian species including man.
Since T. cruzi can readily be recovered from the blood only in the acute phase, the need for an accurate serologic test is essential. The Mardx T. cruzi IFA kit is intended for the detection of human antibodies to T. cruzi in serum or plasma by the indirect fluorescent antibody test.
Individual components as well as the complete IFA kit are available.
