Table 1. Values r0 and K for T. cruzi Nicaragua isolate, Brazil and Tulahuen strains and CL Brener clone.
Growth values of r0 and K for T. cruzi Nicaragua isolate compared with Brazil and Tulahuen 2 strains and CL Brener clone. The linear regression, R >0.5, was calculated with at least five data within the exponential growth phase, and r and K values were determined. Data were from three independent experiments in duplicate.
Nicaragua | Brazil | Tulahuen | CL Brener | |
---|---|---|---|---|
r0 | 0.59 ± 0.1 | 0.66 ± 0.13 | 0.53 ± 0.13 | 0.69 ± 0.15 |
K | 23.55 ± 0.35 | 35.45 ± 6.66 | 34.01 ± 2.52 | 33.89 ± 0.71 |
