Liver (A) and spleen (B) parasite load of L. (L.) infantum-infected hamsters treated intraperitoneal with 20 and 50 mg/kg of body weight of LicoA (1) during eight consecutive days 4 weeks after infection. Thirty-five days after treatment the animals were sacrificed and the parasite burden was evaluated both in spleen and liver by limiting dilution method. Negative control group received the same number of injections of phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and animals from positive control group was treated with meglumine antimoniate (MA) (Glucantime®-Sanofi-Aventis) at dose 50 mg/kg of body. An asterisk indicates statistically significant differences as compared to the negative control group (PBS) (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01).
