Effect of the injection of ribosomes and RNA from Crithidia fasciculata on the experimental infection of mice by Trypanosoma cruzi.
Immunization of mice with Crithidia fasciculata (live suspension, ribosomal fraction and purified RNA) induced a certain degree of protection (decrease of parasitaemia) against infection with Trypanosoma cruzi.
