Parasitological parameters evaluated in Swiss male mice, after 60 days of age, infected with Y strain of Trypanosoma cruzi. Infected group treated with PBS (IG), infected group treated with ASA (IGA)

Groups	Prepatent period (days)	Patent period (days)	Parasite peak (8 days) (trypomastigotes/ml × 103)	Total parasitaemia (trypomastigotes/ml × 103)
IG	7.0 ± 0.84	5.6 ± 0.74	1.68 ± 12.86	5.02 ± 22.59
IGA	6.5 ± 0.81	5.8 ± 0.77	1.76 ± 13.38	5.34 ± 23.43
