Common Bed Bugs: Non-Viable Hosts for <i>Trypanosoma rangeli</i> Parasites

The hemoflagellate parasite <i>Trypanosoma rangeli</i> is transmitted by triatomine kissing bugs and may co-infect humans together with its Chagas disease-causing congener <i>T. cruzi</i>. Using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and antimicrobial assa...
